Publisher's summary

As owner of the Crewel World needlework shop and part-time sleuth, Betsy Devonshire has become skilled at weaving suspicious threads together. Just back from a trip to Thailand, Doris Valentine is eager to show her stitching friends her souvenirs, which include dazzling Thai silk. She also has a small stone Buddha that she agreed to deliver to an antique store in St. Paul. It's wrapped in a dirty rag, which she throws away. When she meets the dealer, he is surprised that she unwrapped it, though relieved the statue's delicate hands aren't damaged.

The next night, Doris' apartment is broken into, then the antique shop owner is found murdered, his shop ransacked, and the Buddha gone. And Betsy starts to wonder about the dingy wrapper she retrieved from the trash.

Narrator so poor

The narrator was so poor it was hard to follow the story. All characters sound the same. There is no emotion in the narration. I like these books but if this was my first from this author I would not listen to another.

tediously overwritten

oh for a well-crafted cozy mystery. after 30 minutes i was squirming, after 45 i gave up completely on this painfully overwritten and underplotted book...with a gang of five women in a needlework shop, each 'event' is told and retold to the point of wanting a sharp knitting needle at hand to poke the author out of the endless retelling and repeating...good idea, terrible execution. where was the editor????

Worst read story ever!

This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?

The story was typical light mystery, but listening to the reader's lack of inflection and pauses and emphasis on the wrong words was almost painful or at least irritating. I couldn't finish the book because of it.

What didn’t you like about Connie Crawford’s performance?
