Yarn shop owner Kath Rutledge is at the Holston Living History Farm, in Blue Plum, TN, teaching a high school workshop on crazy quilts when her lesson is interrupted by the theatrics of the farm's assistant director. Phillip Ball is heading up an archaeological dig on the property when one of his students uncovers a human skeleton. Is this body related to Geneva the Ghost who haunts Kath's shop? After Phillip turns up dead, Kath must weave the pieces together before someone else enters the hereafter.
VERDICT The fourth entry (after Spinning in Her Grave) in MacRae's series is full of loving crafting details and quirky, sassy characters. If you like mysteries about life in a small town, this is the series for you. Kath is a tried and true amateur detective who loves to stick her nose into everybody's business.
