Ribbons & Robbery: A Craft and Ghost Cozy Mystery (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781966424611)

Claudia Grant planned to sell holiday stockings-not solve a murder.

The holidays are supposed to be magical, but when Claudia Grant's well-meaning grandmother signs her up (without asking) for a booth at the bustling Drakes Bay Holiday Market, things start to unravel like a dropped stitch in a knitting basket.

Between hand-sewn Christmas and Hanukkah stockings, fabric wreaths, and a last-minute crash course in holiday bazaars, Claudia is in over her head. And that's before the local self-proclaimed bazaar queen, Ginny Wicket, struts in with her fancy brooches and bad attitude.

The annual Drakes Bay Holiday Bazaar is supposed to be filled with handcrafted gifts, holiday fun, and good cheer-not murder.

When Ginny Wicket collapses beside her glittering display, Claudia assumes it's a tragic medical emergency. But when the cause of death points to something sinister, the festive market becomes a crime scene.

Claudia and her best friend Beth can't ignore the loose threads.

A brooch that mysteriously appears in Beth's tote box.

A damp jewelry box in Claudia's shoulder bag.

And don't forget the nervous knitter with something to hide.

A fitness trainer who's a little too protective.

A banker cousin who knows more about business than she lets on.

And we can't overlook a rude, wealthy socialite obsessed with being in the know.

As secrets unravel and another attack hits close to home, Claudia must stitch together clues before the killer disappears with the holiday crowd.

Will Claudia survive her first holiday market... or will the season's hottest trend be felony chic?

Perfect for fans of Ellie Alexander, Maddie Day, and heartwarming holiday mysteries with crafty heroines and a hint of unexpected surprises.
