    🧵 Quilt shop owner and master quilter Betsy Binder is hosting her weekly quilting bee when their most competitive member—a perfectionist quilter known for her flawless stitches—is found dead in the shop's back room, pinned beneath a heavy quilting frame with a poisoned quilting needle clutched in her hand. The police suspect a tragic accident, but Betsy notices the quilt block they were collectively stitching contains a hidden message in the color placement and the victim's thimble holds a microSD card. With her quilting bee shattered by suspicion and the shop's reputation in tatters, Betsy must piece together an investigation as intricate as a double wedding ring pattern. Assisted by her loyal quilting friends and the handsome textile historian documenting their community quilt project, Betsy uncovers a scheme involving stolen antique quilts, forged quilt appraisals, and a lucrative black market for historic textiles. From suspicious batting materials that reveal modern substitutions to stitching patterns that don't match the quilter's known style, every patch tells a story. But when Betsy discovers the victim was blackmailing fellow quilters about their family secrets hidden in signature quilts, she realizes the killer is protecting a legacy more precious than any heirloom. With the annual quilt show approaching and the real culprit still stitching lies, Betsy must baste together the truth before her own quilt gets permanently bound off.

    Something is troubling Inspector Henry Cutter. Sergeant Gideon Bliss is accustomed to his ill-tempered outbursts, but lately the inspector has grown silent and withdrawn. Then, the murders begin. The first to die is the elderly Sir Aneurin Considine, a decorated but obscure civil servant who long ago retired to tend his orchids. If the motive for his killing is a mystery, the manner of his death is more bewildering still. The victims that follow suffer similar fates, their deaths gruesome but immaculately orchestrated. The murderer comes and goes like a ghost, leaving only carefully considered traces. As the hunt for this implacable adversary mounts, the inspector's gloom deepens, and to Sergeant Bliss, his methods seem as mystifying as the crimes themselves. 
     
     
     
    Why is he digging through dusty archives while the murderer stalks further victims? And as hints of past wrongdoing emerge—and with them the faint promise of a motive—why does Cutter seem haunted by some long-ago failing of his own? To find the answers, the meek and hapless sergeant must step out of the inspector's shadow. Aided by Octavia Hillingdon, a steely and resourceful journalist, Bliss will uncover truths that test his deepest beliefs. 
     
     
     
    Hypnotic and twisty, The Naming of the Birds will leave you questioning what matters most—solving a case or serving justice.
