DescriptionPerfect for fans of Betty Hechtman and Maggie Sefton, Holly Quinns third Handcrafted mystery aspires to wrap you in its warmth. Community Craft proprietor Sammy Kane must piece together a patchwork of clues when a live mannequin ends up stone-cold dead. Snowcapped pines and glittery dusted sidewalks adorn tranquil Heartsford, Wisconsin, while residents cuddle beneath heirloom quilts in front of cozy wood fires. But come the next day, the below-zero temperatures wont keep the locals away from Heartsfords annual Fire & Ice event. To boost customer traffic at Community Crafts one-night-only sale, Samantha Sammy Kane persuades a few of the craftspeople who sell their wares at the store to participate in a live mannequin window display contest. Local quilter Wanda Wadsworth emerges as a favorite to win the contest, as she manages to not move a muscle for an unusual amount of time. Onlookers outside the window try everything to get her to crack--tapping on the glass and making funny faces--but nothing disrupts Wandas stillness. When the eagle-eyed spectators realize Wanda isnt breathing, a blanket of grief and fear descends upon the wintry town. Detective Liam Nash cant seem to piece the clues together. Fortunately, Sammys cousin, Heidi, and her sister, Ellie, are on hand to reconvene their detective team, S.H.E. They set out to solve Wandas untimely death before the case grows as icy as a sub-zero Wisconsin winter. But they are all too aware that the killer is too close for comfort.About the AuthorHolly Quinn has published two stand-alone fiction novels in another persona.
