LOOM WITH A VIEW   Della Wright has come to peaceful and picturesque Briar Hollow, at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains, to realize her lifelong dream of owning a weaving studio. To promote her new business, Dream Weavers, Della is offering weaving workshops for all levels of ability. In her first class, she meets half a dozen of the town’s colorful characters, who seem as eager to gossip as to learn how to work a loom. But when a shady local businessman is found murdered, Briar Hollow suddenly appears a lot less idyllic. And when one of her weaving students is suspected of the crime, Della can’t help getting entangled in the investigation—with some help from her criminologist friend, Matthew. But can she weave together clues as well as she weaves together yarn—and stop a killer from striking again? FEATURES WEAVING TIPS! Della Wright moved to Briar Hollow in the Blue Ridge Mountains to open a weaving shop. Her shop, called Dream Weavers, is in the house of her childhood friend, Matt, now a criminologist who seems interested in rekindling romance. When Della finds the body of real-estate con man Jeremy Fox, Briar Hollow feels a lot less idyllic, prompting Della to turn sleuth. The weaving details are interesting without overwhelming the clever mystery. Fans of craft mysteries, including those by Amanda Lee, Maggie Sefton, and Monica Ferris, will want to add this new series to their reading lists. --Amy Alessio “I loved Looming Murder !
