Book #5 in 2014

A Dark and Stormy Knit by Anne Canadeo.

Is the murder of a local co-ed related to the Knit Kats, a group of anonymous yarn graffiti artists?  Maggie Messina and her Black Sheep Knitters are on the case, along with the local cops, of course.

4 stars for chick-knit-lit.  Subtract one for the non-crafty.

Book #4 in 2014

Fear Nothing by Lisa Gardner.

Despite an injury that has her on medical leave, Detective D.D. Warren helps the team catch The Rose Killer, who is copying a 40-year old serial killer, Harry Day.  Are the killings somehow related to Harry, or perhaps to his daughter Shana Day, a killer in her own right, but who is currently serving a life sentence?  Where does younger daughter, Dr. Adeline Glen, a psychiatrist with a rare condition that prevents her from feeling pain, fit in?

4 stars.
