Lea Wait’s latest mystery is TWISTED THREADS, the first in her new Mainely Needlepoint series, with protagonist Angie Curtis. Angie grew up in Haven Harbor, Maine. After her mother (a single parent some called the town slut) disappeared when Angie was ten, Angie was brought up by her grandmother. In the ten years since Angie left Maine she’s worked for a private investigator in Arizona, and her Gram has organized a group of Mainers into a small custom needlepoint company she calls Mainely Needlepoint. Now Angie’s mother’s body has been found, and it’s time to Angie to go home … and uncover what happened to her mother. Have you read TWISTED THREADS? If so, can you answer these questions? Two winners will receive signed advanced copies of THREADS OF EVIDENCE … the second in the Mainely Needlepoint series ... which won’t be published until August 26!
1) What is hidden under a stack of woolen gloves in the hall sideboard at Gram’s house?
2) What does Mainely Needlepointer Dave Percy grow in his garden?
3) Who is Chastity Falls?
4) What unusual hobby does Rev. Tom McCully have?
5) Where does Sarah Byrne come from?
6) What was Angie’s job in high school?
7) Who is Juno?
8) What does Angie find in her mother’s bedroom?
9) What does Angie wear for luck?
10) Who or what are the Three Sisters?
