Skeins and Secrets

Maeve Lynch Knitting Mysteries #2

by Kitty Graham

If you love knitting, clever clues, and a cozy Irish setting where everyone has something to hide, you need to grab this mystery today.

The Fáilte Fiber Festival is the highlight of Dublin’s crafting calendar—until a designer turns up dead and the competition spins out of control. Between gossiping knitters, sabotaged entries, and a suspicious voting glitch, Maeve Lynch finds herself in the middle of a murder that’s anything but soft and woolly.

A perfect entry point to the series, this cozy mystery can be enjoyed on its own.

Can you untangle the clues before Maeve does?
You’ll fall in love with her loyal Westie Nidge, her pint-sized knitting crew, and the irresistible charm of Dublin’s fiber scene.

Perfect for fans of Ellie Alexander, Clare O’Donohue, and Sally Goldenbaum, Skeins and Secrets delivers everything a cozy-mystery lover small-town humor, slow-burn romance, and a twisty whodunnit that will keep you guessing to the very last stitch.

Loved this book!

I loved all the knitting 🧶 throughout the book & how it was involved with the mystery! I didn’t guess the ending - either “who did it” or who Maeve was going to date. Now to start the next book! 📕

[Chelsey Lepinski · Rating 4 out of 5]

Great cozy mystery. This one didn’t have as much of the tech language from the first book so was much easier to read. I loved that I didn’t see the ending coming and the “friendships” with Liam and Karl are blooming. I love that Maeve is part of a trio of strong women friends.

When the consistent winner of the pattern contest at the local Fiber Fair is found murdered, Liam leads the investigation. Of course Maeve’s insights into the knitting world insist she become involved. A fun cozy mystery series.

Quick, fun reads about mystery and mayhem. Can't go wrong with a story set in Ireland with tea and scones and a loved pup.
