Synopsis

Peggy Ehrhart's eighth Knit and Nibble Mystery will appeal to fans of cozy mysteries, knitters, and other crafters. Perfect for fans of Betty Hecht, Sadie Hartwell, and Leslie Meier.

A member of a prominent New Jersey family has been found dead on St. Patrick's Day—and Pamela Paterson and her knitting club have a parade of suspects . . .

The Listers have been part of Arborville society for generations—though seventy-something Isobel Lister doesn't fit the role of upper-crust heiress. She's always been a colorful character, and her fun-loving spirit is on display at the senior center celebration as she performs some beloved Irish songs. But just minutes later, her body is found backstage.

It's hard to imagine who'd target a harmless old lady, and Pamela finds herself suspecting everyone. There's the Wiccan who thought St. Patrick wasn't so saintly; the woman upset about cultural appropriation who feels the commercialization of shamrocks is a sham; the two men Isobel was seeing, who could have been green with jealousy—and old friends and family who may have feared Isobel would spill their secrets. But Pamela's on the case, and that means for the killer, the jig will soon be up . . .

Irish Knit Murder by Peggy Ehrhart is the ninth book in the cozy A Knit & Nibble Mystery series.

Irish Knit Murder Earns 5/5 St. Paddy’s Day Treats… Entertaining Gem! The ninth book in Peggy Ehrhart’s Knit & Nibble Mystery series is just as fresh and entertaining as the first and this time has readers engaged in St. Patrick’s Day. Isobel Lister was invited to sing a few old Irish tunes at the se......more

Goodreads review by Christine on February 20, 2023

This is such a cozy, relaxing series. This book, like the others I've read in this series, has an even, leisurely pace. It begins with a local society woman with a reputation as being eccentric, singing a variety of Irish songs at a Senior center's St. Patrick's Day luncheon. After her enthusiastic......more

Goodreads review by Lisa on September 09, 2022

I've become a fan of this series and always look forward to reviewing a new book. This book wasn't as good as the previous ones. It felt rushed and off kilter, and there wasn't any of the excitement that usually takes place in these books. I'm hoping the next book is back to normal. #IrishKnitMurder #......more

Goodreads review by Jerri on September 25, 2022

I can't knit. At all. Believe me, I have tried. So, when I found that Peggy Ehrhart's latest book was available for review, I jumped at the chance to read it. Not only does the mystery keep me reading, but I can "knit" right along with Pamela, Bettina and the Knit and Nibble club members. This lates......more
