I know this town and its residents like the back of my hand. With some help from my friends, I’ll figure out who’s telling the truth, and who’s spinning a yarn of lies.

Can I stitch together the clues and find the real killer before the wrong person is charged with murder?

Crime Skein

Someone was murdered during a snow storm. It’s beginning to seem like it was someone Megan knows. These books are always so much fun! All of the characters together are so great. There’s never a dull moment. The series has a knitting theme.

Entertaining cozy mystery

Both the author Reagan Davis and narrator Zim Avaltrades are relatively new to me. This cozy mystery was entertaining and I enjoyed the story. It was good to be back in Harmony Lake with another murder for Megan and her cohorts to solve. This time Megan will be pulled in different directions and her personal life is about to get complicated; torn between her sheriff boyfriend and her ex husband who is now a suspect.

This book was full of twists and turns that kept me guessing throughout. There were lots of clues to follow and some surprises in Crime Skein as Megan, her boyfriend and other friends follow the clues and I have to say that I was taken aback on a couple of occasions.

I continued to find the narrators male voices hard to relate to (they seem forced to me) but since her main character is a female I could still listen and enjoy the story. I really liked the characters, they are engaging and easy to relate to and the fact that they are of a mature age is an added bonus for me.

Another hit!

I really enjoyed this mystery filled with twists and turns. It’s a great cozy mystery with intrigue, humor, and romance. Even though this is book 6, there’s enough backstory that this works as a standalone, but I’d recommend starting with book 1 and listening in order. The narrator has a couple of odd voices for some characters, but overall she does a good job, and it’s fun to listen while knitting.

Running for Mayor is Murder!

Crime Skein is Book 6 in A Knitorious Mystery by Reagan Davis. I find that this series is fantastic. I love the characters, Megan, Eric, Adam and all of the supporting cast, they have become book friends! Adam is running for Mayor of Harmony Lake; but, when his opponent is killed in a hit and run with Adam's car, Megan gets involved in the case. I felt that Crime Skein had so much action and Reagan Davis did an outstanding job of leading the reader to more clues to solve the case.. Eric and Megan are growing in their relationship. I can't wait to listen to Sins and Needles, book 7 in the series. A Knitorious Mystery is a fabulous series.

Great story!

I read the book and loved it, and listening to it in audiobook form was a different way to experience the story. Really good narration - the narrator embodies the character of Megan really well. The only voices that I found a bit odd were the male voices, particularly that of Megan's partner Eric.
