Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Nachdem die ersten beiden Bände wirklich gut waren, spannend, komplex, ist diese Geschichte etwas enttäuschend, denn der Mörder ist schon ca im 3. Kapitel bekannt und es geht dann nur noch um den plumpen Beweis der Tat. Die Helden sind gewohnt sympathisch, aber der Krimi tritt total in den Hintergrund, während es vor allem um Kaffee Trinken, zusammen Essen und Kelly's Zukunft geht. Das ist sicher auch wichtig, ist aber in diesem Prozentsatz doch eher Teil eines Romans, nicht eines Krimis. Ich habe das Buch dennoch nicht ungern gelesen, denn es hätte Potenzial gehabt und hoffe einfach, dass der nächste Band wieder besser ist.

Another winner!

Format:Taschenbuch
This is the third book in Sefton's knitting series and definitely worth the time to pick up. Sefton continues to develop Kelly's life and add changes to it to keep us involved personally as well as with the murder plot. I enjoy the "cozy" knitting theme as well as the plot. The CO setting is very well done and enjoyable.
In this installment, a fabric artist that Kelly knew is murdered, but it is first seen as a sucide. Kelly can't accept this so begins investigating herself. She actually does a good job of keeping the police involved as well, which is a nice change from many murder mysteries!
We also see developments in Kelly's personal life as she has to decide whether to cut the ties to her DC job and transfer permanently to CO. Hopefully in the next book we will see some more movement in her romantic life as well! Steve has been very patience and is SO sweet...they definitely need to jump over the line into actually dating!
Pick up a cup of tea, a ball of yarn and enjoy this book!

fun artistic amateur sleuth
2. August 2006
Format:Taschenbuch
Visiting Santa Fe, House of Lambspun knitters Kelly Flynn and Megan admire the work of local artist and friend Allison DuBois who won a well deserved award as the Southwest designer Institute's Wearable Fiber Artist of the Year. Allison, who never sleeps, produces highly regarded "wearable art". Allison informs her friends that she is heading to New York as an apprentice at a designer's studio who also arranges an apartment for the newcomer.
Kelly, Megan and Allison return to Fort Connor, Colorado after the award gala. Megan returns a cell phone to Allison only to find the artist dead. Megan is shook up so Kelly calls Fort Connor Police Lieutenant Morrison who investigated the death of her Aunt Helen. When the only thing missing is beads Allison picked up in New Mexico, the police assume it is an accidental death due to an overdose of sleeping pills. Though she needs to get back to her CPA practice in DC and should heed Morrison's pointed stay out of it dictatorial direction, Kelly believes a homicide occurred and begins to investigate Allison's recent lifestyle involving three not good for her males with at least one mostly likely deadly.
The third knitting mystery (see KNIT ONE, KILL TWO and NEEDLED TO DEATH), is a fun artistic amateur sleuth tale starring likable characters who make Fort Connor, at least the House of Lambspun knitting club members, eccentric but amiable. The whodunit is well crafted as Kelly investigates one stitch at a time Allison's recent destructive social life and the three suspects that surface. Though doubtful once again that the CPA knitter would make inquiries, fans will not care as Maggie Sefton provides a delightful mystery.

It seems knitting can be a dangerous occupation.
4. September 2007
Once again we get to join Kelly Flynn and her friends in Ft. Connor, Colorado and frequent The House of Lambspun. Allison Dubois has finally gotten some recognition for her wearable art and will be starting an internship with Sophia Emeraud in her New York studio. Kelley and Megan Schmidt attend a gallery showing of Allison's work and help her get ready to move to New York. But when they arrive to take Allison to the airport they are shocked to find her dead. The police are ready to rule it a suicide but Kelley, Megan, and others who knew Allison suspect foul play. Kelley once again uses her accountant-honed attention to detail and minutiae to uncover some clues that may lead the police to reconsider their decision.
This book continues several of the background threads begun in book one and carried along. Will Kelley find a way to stay in Ft. Connor rather than return to her high-pressure job in Washington, DC? Will Kelley drop her defenses a bit and admit that Steve is more than just a friend? The detail and background gets richer with each book as characters are added and then continuing characters gain more depth and texture. It becomes an ideal setting that is very satisfying for a reader to drop into and visit for a time -- somewhere where there are the close knit communities of friendships that most of us crave in our busy lives.
Having read all the books in the series, I'm finding that with each book the writing gets tighter and the central mystery gains in complexity. This series keeps improving along with the knitting skills of Kelly Flynn -- who has now mastered circular needles. The book contains a pattern for a Lambspun Easy Triangle Shawl, recipes for Chiles Rellenos Con Queso (Chile Peppers stuffed with Cheese), Rellenos de Chiles verde, and Baked Chiles Rellenos.
