Abbey Chandler needs a new start and a place to escape, so Hideaway Grove, where she spent her childhood summers, seems like a perfect choice. Once there, she takes up a rewarding new hobbyâbut also gets tangled up in a hitand-run homicide âŚ
Abbey has barely arrived in the quaint, quiet town of Hideaway Grove before things turn from blissful to bloodyâas the new librarian is mowed down by a car.
The only witness on the scene isnât much help, aside from handing Abbey the bag of books dropped by the victim. Even worse, the sheriffâs office seizes Abbeyâs car because of a suspicious dent in the right front fender.
While she waits for the problem to be sorted out, Abbey is drawn into a charity sewing projectâeven though she canât tell a bobbin from a seam ripper. Before she knows it, sheâs graduating from pillowcase dresses to aprons, setting up a
studio in a back room of her auntâs bakery, and making plans to participate in the upcoming craft fair.
But through it all, she keeps looking for patterns and possible conflicts in the late librarianâs personal, professional, and romantic life. Then a shocking discovery sends her in a new direction, and as the truth begins to unspool, sheâs got a notion about whoâs guilty âŚ
