Margaret Abernathy thought her biggest worry was finishing a complex quilt for the upcoming town fair. But when Katherine Anderson (Katie), the beloved owner of the local quilting shop, vanishes without a trace, Margaret finds herself entangled in a perplexing mystery. Katie's shop has been shuttered for days, and a police welfare check revealed her home unlocked and empty, though her car remains in the garage. With no immediate family in town and her only known sister residing in distant Colorado, the community is baffled. No one can recall the last time they saw Katie, leaving a void filled with whispers and unease. As Margaret delves deeper, she discovers that beneath the seemingly quiet surface of their town, secrets are as intricately woven as the threads in Katie's finest fabrics. With her keen eye for detail and a growing sense of urgency, Margaret must unravel the tangled threads of Katie's disappearance. She'll need to piece together clues, navigate the hushed conversations of the townsfolk, and confront the possibility that Katie's vanishing act might be more deliberate—and dangerous—than anyone imagined. This second installment in the Needlepoint of No Return series will keep you guessing until the very last stitch.
