Synopsis

When adoptee Lucille Jones comes to town researching her roots, Betsy Devonshire notices that she bears a remarkable resemblance to local Jan Henderson. Betsy introduces the look-alikes and they quickly hit it off. But then Jan's wealthy great-aunt is found dead, helped to her grave by a stiff metal wire—a double-zero knitting needle, in fact. Just like the kind Jan knits with.Lucille begs Betsy to help clear her new friend's name. And while going through her aunt's effects, Jan finds an old pillow lined with an embroidered map of Lake Minnetonka. Betsy intends to follow the threads. Who knows—it could just possibly lead to buried treasure. Or, perhaps, to a secret that someone will kill to keep buried.

I am currently going through this series in audio form. I was disappointed in this one. The series usually rates at least a 4 star from me and the previous one Crewel Yule rated at 4.5. The narrator was changed again for this book and she is horrible. She reads as the main character in a low almost......more

Goodreads review by Kirsti on August 27, 2016

When I truly love a series, I devour it. This has happened with these books. I'm completely lost in them, to the point where my boyfriend has to say my name about five times just to get my attention. They are beyond good, for one of my absolute favorite genres! This one had some interesting boat info......more
