Thanks for visiting the official website for New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author and Winner of the Daphne du Maurier Award of Excellence, Joanna Campbell Slan.
An enhanced and newly revised edition of the 5th book in the Kiki Lowenstein Mystery Series of cozies, featuring ace crafter and female amateur sleuth Kiki Lowenstein. (Paper, Scissors, Death: Book #1 was shortlisted for the Agatha Award.)
Also includes a bonus preview of Ready, Scrap, Shoot: Book #6 in the Kiki Lowenstein Mystery Series.
Dumpster diving for her lost paycheck is definitely the low point of Kiki Lowenstein’s day?that is, until she finds a severed leg thrown in with the trash. Who’d toss a body part in the garbage outside the crafts store where Kiki works?
Accompanying the grisly “gift” is a creepy computerized voice message, a warning to the store’s “rich and snotty” female shoppers. Kiki soon discovers that the leg belonged to Cindy Gambrowski, a customer with a tyrannical and violent husband?who’s now harassing Kiki. Combing through Cindy’s scrapbook projects for hidden clues, Kiki tries to find the killer. Was it a crime of marital malice, or did someone else beat Cindy’s husband to the punch?
Includes an email address to send away for a bonus file with recipes and craft ideas.
