Synopsis

Deadly Threads

A Thread & Tangle Mystery – Book One
By M.C. Needleton

Welcome to Ivy Ridge — where the quilts are colorful, the gossip is quick, and murder is always one stitch away.

Everly Faye Galloway isn’t just the owner of A Stitch in Time, Ivy Ridge’s beloved quilt shop — she’s also a lifelong lover of vintage mysteries, strong tea, and a good hometown scandal. But when a break-in at her shop leads to the discovery of a dead body, Everly is forced to swap her needle for a magnifying glass.

The victim? A stranger… with a surprising link to the town librarian.
The lead suspect? Someone no one wants to believe.
And the sheriff? Jax Garner — Everly’s childhood friend turned small-town lawman, whose patience for amateur sleuthing wears as thin as an over-washed quilt.

With the help of her loyal (and nosy) best friend Bethany, her Wednesday night “Sip & Stitch” quilting circle, and a whole lot of stubborn charm, Everly starts tugging at the threads of Ivy Ridge’s secrets — and uncovers a patchwork of lies, betrayals, and unexpected truths.
