Thread and Gone

Mainely Needlepoint Mystery Series, Book 3

De: Lea Wait

Narrado por: Christina Delaine

Angie Curtis and her fellow Mainely Needlepointers know how to enjoy their holidays. But nothing grabs their attention like tying up loose threads. So when Mary Clough drops in on the group's Fourth of July supper with a question about an antique needlepoint she's discovered in her family attic, Angie and her ravelers are happy to look into the matter.

Angie's best guess is that the mystery piece may have been stitched by Mary, Queen of Scots, famous not just for losing her head, but also for her needlepointing. If Angie's right, the piece would be extremely valuable. For safekeeping, Angie turns the piece over to her family lawyer, who places it in a safe in her office. But when the lawyer is found dead with the safe open and ransacked, the real mystery begins....

Very Enjoyable Story

The characters and story line were excellent. I look forward to the other books in the series.

Having needlepoint as a hobby certainly helped me understand and enjoy the premise of the business.

My enjoyment was certainly enhanced by the voice acor/Narrator. I really appreciated her talent and the tone and Pacing were just right.

Thread and Gone is ok but not really great. The story is flat and the characters are a bit bland. I enjoyed the history of Mary Queen of Scots that was woven into the story, and I guess the needlepoint quotes were also interesting. The narrator didn't have a lot to work with but did the best she could with the material she was given. I don't think I'll get the next one in this series.
