Blurb:
A summer fiber festival. A pile of fleece.
A dead body. A small town in a tizzy…
When the Saturday Spinners find a man dead in the fleece tent, Adri Foster must carry on to ensure Spinstock’s success, bringing together fiber artists, musicians, and the whole community.
A medical problem might have caused Wayne Honeywell’s death, but the police soon say otherwise. The body being buried in the fleece rules out a natural cause.
Once Adri and her smart Border Collie, Snooper, are on the case, clues and suspects emerge.
Gossip spreads fast, and appearances are deceiving.
The murder sends ripples through the town; the victim’s wife, Penny, is at the center of suspicion.
Rumors of a red-haired woman, opposition to the power line, and whispers of late-night poker games expand the suspects.
Snooper and Adri notice what others overlook.
Mistrust and betrayal threaten friendships.
In Seven Springs, the truth is hiding in plain sight.
My Review:
A man is discovered lifeless in a fleece tent, his body shrouded in fleece. He didn’t cover himself, so who did? Someone clearly wanted to silence him for some reason—what could it be?
Adri and Snooper dig up numerous clues once they finally begin their investigation. Local law enforcement advised them to steer clear of the case, but we all know Adri can’t resist the urge to get involved. She has a multitude of questions about why he was there so early and what transpired.
The entire town buzzed with chatter about the deceased man found in the fleece tent. When the rumors reach Adri, her curiosity compels her to uncover the truth. As she starts probing around town, clues begin to surface, bringing her closer to the events of that fateful morning in the fleece tent.
Adri’s inquiry also uncovers several suspicious individuals, leading to more clues waiting to be revealed. The plot thickens with layers of mystery and suspense, making the narrative even more intriguing and engaging.
The descriptions were so vividly crafted that I had no trouble visualizing the story, experiencing everything as if I were part of that world. It felt like I was watching a film unfold before my eyes.
I wholeheartedly recommend Dead in the Wool to anyone seeking their next cozy mystery to snuggle up with on a Saturday afternoon or any day, for that matter. So, grab a blanket and a copy of Dead in the Wool today!
