A Christmas Quilt - (Cyborg Dreams) by Marjory Sorrell Rockwell (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

"Get in the holiday spirit with Marjory Sorrell Rockwell's latest addition to the Quilters Club series. How good is it? I call it a Christmas miracle!" - Marcy Birdweather, Marcy's Musings "I can't get enough of those Quilters Club gals. Small-town sleuthing and lovable characters -- what more do you want in a cozy mystery?" - Pamela Paige, former feature writer, Florida Times-Union Amateur detective Maddy Madison and her Quilters Club cronies return with another cozy mystery set in Caruthers Corners, Indiana -- this time the murder of a Straw Hatter in the middle of the town's annual Christmas Parade. Maybe "return" is not the right word, in that this book is a prequel, taking place before the others in this bestselling series. Along with those four intrepid crime-solvers -- Maddy, Cookie, Bootsie, and Lizzie -- you'll meet Leslie Ann Holmes, the precocious British "exchange student" who joins the sleuthing. And there is a Christmas quilt, a family heirloom stolen by Beau Madison's long-lost brother Mycroft -- a mysterious patchwork masterpiece that traces back to the 1800s and legendary political cartoonist Thomas Nast!

About the Author

Marjory Sorrell Rockwell says needlecraft arts - quilting, crocheting, knitting - are pastimes every woman can appreciate. And she particularly loves quiltmaking. "It's like painting with cloth," she says. But when not quilting she writes mysteries about a Midwestern sleuth not unlike herself, a middle-aged lady with an unpredictable family and loyal friends. And she's a big fan of watermelon pie.
