Publisher's summary

Sweater shop owner Paislee Shaw puts the yarn in Nairn, but a killer has put poison in some Scottish shortbread cookies . . .

Opening her shop Cashmere Crush and making a new home for herself, her son Brody, Gramps, and their black Scottish terrier Wallace in the beautiful Scottish village of Nairn, is a dream come true. So Paislee is happy to give back by donating a luxurious cashmere sweater for an auction to raise money for the Nairn Food Bank. She's less happy to make the acquaintance of a clique of competitive moms at the charity event, who treat a baking contest like it's life or death. It turns out to be the latter for queen bee Kirsten Buchanan when a peanut-laced shortbread cookie triggers her fatal nut allergy.

Who would poison Kirsten? How about half the town? But when Paislee's pal Blaise is suspected, the sweater-selling sleuth leaps into action to unravel the mystery. Along with gruff but handsome DI Mack Zeffer, she has to sort through a batch of suspects without becoming this cookie-cutter killer's next target . . .

I like this series

I like this series. I downloaded the first book because the main character was a knitter with a yarn shop, but it isn’t prominent as a theme. The characters are engaging, and the stories are good. I am looking forward to the fourth book, which hasn’t been released yet.

Mean vs. wimpy women

Let me say up front that I came to dislike this book more and more the further into it I got. I made myself finish it, but it was difficult. The text itself is repetitious and padded: we have about eight women characters who recount the same facts to each other over and over—just in case we missed something. Many of these characters are incredibly rude to each other and two-faced about it, whereas others just seem to put up with such treatment. All of this makes for a lot of dreary lunches and outings and other social events until finally we find out who done it. If you enjoy reading women’s chitchat, you may be amused. If not, then read something else.
