Thea James has accepted an assignment as co-chairperson for Larkindale s first quilt show extravaganza. Juggling the new assignment with running her antique business, she s already feeling frayed when things start to unravel. Mary-Alice Wentworth, a much-loved town matriarch, respected quilt judge, and Thea s dear friend, is covertly conked on the head during the kick-off Quilt Show Soiree, throwing suspicion on her guests. It also appears that a valuable diamond brooch has been stolen during the attack. The family is furious. But is it because of their mugged mother or the missing diamonds? When a renowned textile expert goes MIA and the famous Wentworth heritage quilt disappears, Larkindale s reputation as a tourist haven is at risk. Thea attempts to piece the mystery together and save the town s investment in the quilt show before Mary-Alice is attacked again . . .with far worse results."
