  Joy Stapleton is Ireland’s most infamous prisoner. She was incarcerated for two life sentences after the bodies of her two young sons were found buried in a shallow grave in the Dublin mountains. But she has always maintained her innocence and argues the only reason she was ever arrested in the first place comes down to mere coincidence. But it’s a coincidence that didn’t convince detectives, that didn’t convince a jury, and that hasn’t endeared her to the inmates of Mountjoy Prison. That is until eight years into her sentence, when new evidence emerges, and everybody—including Joy’s long-suffering husband—is forced into a rethink. Take your seat in the courtroom for the retrial of the century...and see just how wide you’re willing to allow a coincidence to stretch your beliefs.

  🧶 Tatting artisan and vintage lace expert Tess Tuttle is preparing for the Heritage Crafts Fair when the fair's wealthy patron—a collector known for her sharp deals—is found dead in Tess's studio, strangled with an intricate piece of tatted lace. The police suspect a robbery gone wrong, but Tess recognizes the lace pattern as one from a stolen antique collar and notices the victim's collection contains forged Victorian pieces. With her studio sealed as a crime scene and the tatting community in turmoil, Tess must shuttle through the clues to clear her name. Assisted by her tatting circle and the handsome textile archivist documenting historic lace patterns, Tess uncovers a scheme involving lace forgery, stolen shuttle designs, and a black market for antique tatting patterns. From suspicious thread consistency that reveals modern materials to knot patterns that don't match historical techniques, every picot and ring tells a story. But when Tess discovers the victim was systematically acquiring—through fair means or foul—every piece of a rare 19th-century tatting collection, she realizes the killer is protecting a textile treasure more delicate than any lace. With the crafts fair approaching and the real culprit still weaving deception, Tess must untangle this knotted web before her own thread gets permanently cut.

  The Man with the Twisted Lip, one of 56 short Sherlock Holmes stories written by the British author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, is the sixth of 12 stories in The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. It was first published in Strand Magazine in 1891. 
  Neville St. Clair, a respectable businessman, has disappeared, and his wife claims she saw him at the upper window of an opium den. When she entered the room, she found only a beggar. St. Clair's clothes are later found in the room, and his coat, laden with coins, in the River Thames outside the window. The beggar is arrested for murder, but a few days later St. Clair's wife receives a letter from her husband. 
  Holmes considers and watches the beggar to discover that he is actually St. Clair, who confesses that he has been leading a double life as a beggar, as the income is so large, but he promises to stop begging if Holmes will keep his secret from his wife.
