As a lover of both Maine and needlepoint, I always look forward to another book in this entertaining series. It is filled with Maine lore (I especially loved the beginning pages with story of the blessing of the fleet), interesting and intelligent characters and, of course, good food and good needlepoint. Angie Curtis has returned to her home in Haven Harbor, Maine after spending ten years as a private investigator in Arizona. When she and her boyfriend Patrick meet up with their needlepoint friends a the blessing of the fleet, they run into Leo, a runaway who has teamed up with Ike, a local man with disabilities who is cared for by many in the town. When Ike is killed and Leo becomes a suspect, Angie's friend Dave decides to take him under his wing, and Angie uses her investigative skills to find out more about Leo and to track down the real killer, This is another compelling mystery in an outstanding series.
