About the Book



There's never a dull moment for amateur sleuth Molly Pink. Without warning, her infant granddaughter has been dumped in her lap for babysitting duties, her son has reluctantly enlisted her help investigating a potential investor in his business, and now she has to manage a high-profile bookstore event for a former Hollywood columnist who's dishing the dirt in a juicy tell-all. And when the author collapses and dies in the store just as she's about to reveal an incriminating tidbit, the police suspect foul play and zero in on Molly as the likely culprit. Getting herself off the hook won't be easy, but Molly and the Tarzana Hookers are convinced that whoever did the deed wanted to silence the author before she could expose their dark secret. As the police continue to needle Molly, certain she's trying to pull the wool over their eyes with her claims of innocence, she's also in over her head in a mommy group run by Hollywood power couples -- all of whom may have something to hide. As she finally stitches together the loose ends and figures out the killer's identity, they decide it's time to silence her too, and Molly has to think fast before she makes a quick trip from her granddaughter's cradle to the grave.



Book Synopsis



Molly Pink and the Tarzana Hookers have to read between the lines when a bookstore event turns fatal in the new Crochet Mystery by national bestselling author Betty Hechtman.

There's never a dull moment for amateur sleuth Molly Pink. Without warning, her infant granddaughter has been dumped in her lap for babysitting duties, her son has reluctantly enlisted her help investigating a potential investor in his business, and now she has to manage a high-profile bookstore event for a former Hollywood columnist who's dishing the dirt in a juicy tell-all. And when the author collapses and dies in the store just as she's about to reveal an incriminating tidbit, the police suspect foul play and zero in on Molly as the likely culprit.

Getting herself off the hook won't be easy, but Molly and the Tarzana Hookers are convinced that whoever did the deed wanted to silence the author before she could expose their dark secret. As the police continue to needle Molly, certain she's trying to pull the wool over their eyes with her claims of innocence, she's also in over her head in a mommy group run by Hollywood power couples-all of whom may have something to hide. As she finally stitches together the loose ends and figures out the killer's identity, they decide it's time to silence her too, and Molly has to think fast before she makes a quick trip from her granddaughter's cradle to the grave . . .
