Story
After suffering a personal tragedy Abby Sullivan buys a huge old seaside mansion she has never even seen, packs up her life in San Francisco, and moves to Holiday Bay Maine, where she is adopted, quite against her will, by a huge Maine Coon Cat named Rufus, a drifter with her own tragic past named Georgia, and a giant dog with an inferiority complex named Ramos. What Abby thought she needed was alone time to heal. What she ended up with was, an inn she never knew she wanted, a cat she couldn't seem to convince to leave, and a new family she'd never be able to live without.

Realistic but Not Cozy
I usually love books about my home state of Maine but I was expecting a cozy rather than a realistic mystery. While there was no profanity or sex scenes, the plot did involve sexual abuse of children - not too graphic but still disturbing.
The author created realistic Maine characters with one exception; although many Mainers are reserved most are friendly with a dry sense of humor. Unfortunately there were no lighter or warm moments to balance the depressing parts.
I did enjoy the strong females characters, notably Angie and her spunky 65 year old grandmother. And the history of Maine and needle-point was interesting.

Cottage industry and murder
amateur-sleuth, women-sleuths, needlework, cottage-industry, crooks, murder
The publisher's blurb wasn't too bad, but since Angie had had reason to escape her home town immediately after high school, she really wasn't thrilled about having to go back. The fact that her mother's body had been found after nearly twenty years did provide some comfort that mom had not deserted her. But a bullet to the brain and the suspect being dead is hardly a positive outcome. Then there is the fact that her gran had begun a cottage business beneficial to several town members but had been fleeced by the buying agent meant that she had to stay and help. Until the man was murdered in their home. There is lots more to this twisty mystery, but no spoilers here. At the beginning of each chapter is a quote from handiwork completed in early Maine history. The characters are engaging and well done.
I got this as Whispersync on the cheap advertised in Book Gorilla.
Christina Delaine provided excellent narration.

This is a Cozy Mystery in the Strictest Definition
If you are a Christian, the first thing you need to know is that the Reverend has a Ouija Board collection!
This book may qualify as a Cozy because it does not have gore and language but that is the only way. The book starts out dark with the lead character’s mother’s body being found after 19 years and never lightens up. I chose the book based on the title, thinking that it was about a group of crafters, it is actually about a crafting business gone wrong. There is also a meth lab.
I was looking for a new cozy series, this was not it.

Disappointing all around
Neither the plot nor the characters can salvage this sorry story. Compounding those negatives is the awful narrator. She doesn't have a Maine or New England accent but instead seems to have a weird Southern accent. After 3 chapters this book is being returned.
