    So much for that work-life-death balance.

    In Barbara Ross's award-winning series featuring sleuth Julia Snowden and her family's coastal Maine clambake business, Morrow Island is a perfect spot for a wedding—and a Snowden Family Clambake. Julia Snowden is busy organizing both—until a mysterious wedding crasher drops dead amid the festivities . . . 
     
     
     
    Julia's best friend and business partner, Zoey, is about to marry her policeman boyfriend. Of course, a gorgeous white wedding dress shouldn't be within fifty yards of a plate of buttery lobster—so that treat is reserved for the rehearsal dinner. Julia is a little worried about the timing, though, as she works around a predicted storm. 
     
     
     
    When a guest falls to the floor dead, it turns out that no one seems to know who he is, despite the fact that he's been actively mingling and handing out business cards. And when an injection mark is spotted on his neck, it's clear this wasn't caused by a shellfish allergy. Now, as the weather deteriorates and a small group is stranded on the island with the body—and the killer—Julia starts interrogating staff, family members, and Zoey's artist friends to find out who turned the clambake into a crime scene . . .

    🧵 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.

    A Spanish treasure ship is driven by a hurricane onto the rocky shoreline of Elbow Cay in September of 1566. Few of the crew survive, but they manage to salvage most of the treasure and bury it on the island, leaving a clue to its location in a chest placed in the boughs of a young mangrove tree. Four hundred forty years later, Jesse McDermitt and his friends solve the riddle that was hidden inside a chest found encased in the now-ancient mangrove. 
    When the head of the Miami-based Croatian mob learns about the treasure he goes to great lengths and expense, in an attempt to relieve Jesse and his friends of the riches. A demented, hyper-sexed island woman also wants it for her own, as does a hot-shot Miami attorney and his son, who is married to Jesse's estranged daughter. 
    As the body count grows, will the crew of Gaspar's Revenge find the treasure or become one of the island's statistics?
