Designs to die for

Kate Stevens moved lock, stock, and barrel from Maine to charming Sage Hills, Texas, hoping to become a household name to the world of crochet designs. Instead she finds herself thrown into a gruesome murder investigation where she is the prime suspect. Betrugen Publishing in Fort Worth was supposed to be Kate's ticket to the big time. But when her dreams seem to be within her grasp, her contract with Betrugen proves to be nothing but an underhanded scheme to steal her designs. To make matters worse, she decides to confront Stefan Betrugen directly about his deceitful tactics and stumbles upon a crime scene in his office. Kate's unfortunate timing and obvious disdain for Stefan lands her at the top of the suspect list. Now she must clear her name, retrieve her designs, and rebuild her fledgling career as an author and it all starts by smoking out the real killer.
