From the USA Today bestselling author of Murder at Lambswool Farm, the sleuthing skills of Izzy Chambers Perry and the Seaside Knitters are tested as death mars the beginning of the school year. . . .

Birdie Favazza’s granddaughter, Gabby, loves attending the local Sea Harbor Community Day School. She’s also excited that Birdie and her fellow Seaside Knitters are teaching their craft to the students by knitting hats for charity. 

Unfortunately, not everyone shares her enthusiasm. Outspoken board member Blythe Westerland has sparked tempers with her determination to discredit the current administration and its new, progressive curriculum. But then, on the evening of an elegant school event, Blythe’s body is found near the school boathouse.

With a killer on the loose, the Seaside Knitters must unravel the layers of Blythe’s complicated life and stitch together the evidence to see whether a murderer has been walking beside them all along . . .
