Sinopse

WHEN Callaghan came into the office, Effie Thompson stopped typing. She said: "Good morning, Mr. Callaghan. There have been a few telephone calls, and your letters are on your desk."
Callaghan said: "Right, Effie. Has Fallon or Craske been through?"
She shook her head. Callaghan went into his office. She followed him with her notebook.
She said: "You're expecting a call from Fallon or Craske? If either of them come through while you're out what shall I do about it?"
Callaghan said: "There's nothing you can do, Effie. Both those birds ought to be pretty scared by this time—both of them or one of them."
She said: "You don't know which one was really responsible for that fraudulent claim?"

    🧵 Fabric shop owner and textile expert Cotton Wright is preparing for the annual Quilter's Convention when the event's main fabric supplier—a ruthless textile magnate—is found dead in her store, buried under a collapsed display of fabric bolts. The police suspect a tragic accident, but Cotton notices the bolts were deliberately cut to weaken them and the victim's order forms contain coded messages about fabric quality. With her shop temporarily closed and the quilting community in chaos, Cotton must measure up as an investigator. Assisted by her quilting bee and the handsome textile chemist analyzing fabric samples, Cotton uncovers a scheme involving counterfeit luxury fabrics, fraudulent fiber content, and a black market for stolen textile designs. From suspicious selvage markings that reveal unauthorized reproduction to dye lots that don't match factory records, every yard tells a story. But when Cotton discovers the victim was systematically diluting luxury fabrics with synthetic fibers while charging premium prices, she realizes the killer is protecting customers from a textile scam more tangled than a knotted thread. With the convention just days away and the real culprit still cutting corners, Cotton must unravel this fabric fiasco before her own bolt gets permanently measured out.

    "An armchair travelers delight" —Publishers Weekly 
     
     
     
    One dead art collector and a gallery of suspects. This romantic weekend just turned deadly . . . 
     
     
     
    Translator Rick Montoya is looking forward to a quiet weekend away with his girlfriend, Betta, an art fraud investigator for the Italian Culture Ministry. Their destination: the beautiful village of Urbino, home to Renaissance masters Rafael and the lesser-known Piero della Francesca. While Betta does have official business to attend to—namely, collecting a priceless Piero drawing from a wealthy Spanish collector on the ministry's behalf—she asks Rick to join her "in case she needs an interpreter," but with other, less-official intentions in mind. 
     
     
     
    When the Spaniard is found murdered and the drawing stolen, Betta must shift back into art cop mode, and Rick's official services are required after all. As they set out to discover the identity of the killer and the whereabouts of the stolen sketch, they are drawn from Urbino's cobbled streets to eastern Tuscany and back as the list of suspects grows longer—and more dangerous. Will this lovers' getaway literally be to die for?
