About the author

Bartenn Mills was born and raised in Iowa but after moving north, south, east and west she settled in a small Iowa town where she raised a family without bloodshed and currently works fulltime at a respectable job, certainly nothing that would suggest a life of fictional crime. In the wee hours of the morning you can find her solving imaginary murders.
Her writing has won awards. She’s published several short stories and poems. Bishop to Queen’s Knight was her debut novel, swiftly followed by Bishop Bewitched. Her next novel, Vanilla Lies, featuring amateur sleuth Jane Vanilla will be out in September

This was a fun read. It had tid bits and very interesting points of view. I loved the quilting tips! I actually learned some things! The whole murder just took it to the top for me. I love how it all came together. This was a very fun read that helped me relax and full filled that need-to-read feeling. The fact that I got my book signed... PRICELESS!
