ABOUT THE BOOK
Tess has taken some ribbing from her fellow officer, Logan, for her quilting hobby. He finds it hard to align the brisk professional officer he patrols with during the day with the one who quilts in her off-time. Besides, he’s been trying to get to know her better and he’d like to be seeing her during those few nights a week she spends with her quilting guild. Then one afternoon Tess and Logan visit her aunt in the nursing home, and the woman acts agitated when Tess covers her with the story quilt. Aunt Susan is attempting to communicate a message to them about Tess’s uncle. There’s a story behind this quilt, they realize, one that may lead them to a serial killer. Will they have a chance to have a future together, or will the killer choose Tess for his next victim before they find him?

My Review: (DISCLAIMER: I have a Quilts of Love book out in Feb)
Barbara Cameron’s contribution to Quilts of Love is chilling yet beautifully drawn. As someone who has written for the series, I know the challenges of fitting a fully-fleshed story into such a short format. A murder mystery must be even more demanding, but here it is believable and tense. Barbara Cameron’s suspense-filled novel reminds us that even as we can’t control every “scrap” in our lives, if we look we can always find “evidence” of God’s comfort and Love. I recommend this book!
