Items related to And Then You Dye (A Needlecraft Mystery)
Betsy Devonshire, full-time owner of the Crewel World needlework shop and part-time sleuth, has hooked more than a few crooks in the USA Today bestselling Needlecraft Mysteries. Now Betsy learns the hard way that a murder is still murder, any way you color it...
Betsy is a natural-born yarnsmith—so it’s only fitting that some of her favorite items to stock come from the dye-works of Hailey Brent. Hailey makes hand-dyed knitting wool, silk, soy, and corn yarns. She uses only natural vegetable dyes, creating soft and beautiful colors. Which means her yarns are expensive, but well worth it.
Unfortunately, someone thinks they’re worth killing for.
When Hailey’s body is discovered shot dead in her workshop, Betsy discovers that there was a lot about Hailey she would have never guessed. Like her penchant for stealing other’s property for her own use. Her use of dangerous additives to create her so-called all-natural fibers. And a scheming mind that had made her more than one enemy.
Now, Betsy must wring the truth from a bevy of colorful suspects. Because the truth just might mean the difference between living—and dyeing...

About the Author:
Monica Ferris is the USA Today bestselling author of several mystery series under various pseudonyms.
From Booklist:
Ferris’ long running Needlecraft series continues with the story of the murder of Hailey Brent, talented yarn dyer. After offering a dye class at Betsy Devonshire’s craft store, Hailey is found dead among her pots and dyes. Gardener friend Marge, whom the police pinpoint as a suspect, asks amateur-sleuth Betsy to find out who really killed Hailey. Betsy quickly learns that Hailey had some bad habits, which angered a lot of people, making it difficult to pinpoint the person with the strongest motive. Betsy and her many friends continue to be vivid, likable characters, and the mystery is intricate enough to keep readers guessing. The needlework details will interest fans but do not overpower the plot. In a nice departure from cozy formula, Ferris injects a bit of realism into the genre by showing how hard it is for amateur sleuths to get people to talk. Fans of this series will also enjoy Maggie Sefton’s and Amanda Lee’s craft-themed mysteries. --Amy Alessio
