Threaded with Lies

An Alex Allin Cozy Mystery

A mysterious envelope. A deadly secret woven in gold. A cozy mystery with more twists than a log cabin quilt.

Quilt shop owner Alex Allin is ready for a quiet retreat in her cozy Colorado town—until a velvet envelope lands on her doorstep. Inside: a cryptic message, a swatch of golden brocade, and a decades-old mystery someone doesn’t want solved. Soon she’s tangled in another small-town whodunit—with stitches pointing straight to Norway and a decades-old mystery someone doesn’t want solved.
With her best friend Juniper, a Granny Squad who thinks they’re MI6, and Saedie—the world’s most biscuit-motivated canine—Alex unravels a web of coded quilts, Cold War whispers, and one devilishly handsome journalist.
As secrets unravel, suspects pile up: Valerie Morse, the jittery town clerk with too many secrets… and Ms. Anders, who’s been hiding the truth for years.
When a stalker begins circling and clues point dangerously close to home, Alex must uncover the truth before history repeats itself— and a long-buried secret claims one final life: hers.

Perfect for fans of clean, heartwarming cozies laced with friendship, folklore, and faith-tinged charm. Bonus recipe and quilt block pattern included!
