Crafting a Cold Case
The long, frigid winters of Nova Scotia are perfect for crafting—but when a once-in-a-lifetime snowstorm cuts off Gasper’s Cove Island from the mainland, Valerie Rankin and her group of crafters settle in to weather the isolation with needles, fabric, yarn, and determination.
As they stitch their way through the dark days, the storm unearths more than snowdrifts—long-buried secrets resurface, and an unsolved murder comes back to haunt the tiny community.
With no one else to turn to, the crafters must unravel the threads of deception before the past traps them in its deadly grip.
