These are the dog days of August, but you won't catch the Tarzana Hookers crochet club napping. While Molly Pink knits together an idea for a new project, Miami Wilson busily converts a house she inherited into a rental property. But Miami is left shorthanded when Sloan Renner, the woman helping her clean out the house ends up dead under a pile of smelly seafood.
A large drone had flown over the property discarding mollusk shells all over the backyard. Was it an accident? An ill-fated prank by neighbors up in arms about a rental house in their cul-de-sac? Witnesses clam up when Molly's ex, homicide detective Barry Greenberg, tries to get information, but he thinks Molly may be able to get them to open up to her.
When Molly learns about Sloan's seafood allergy, she suspects that the woman's death was no accident. Can she bait the hook to catch the culprit, or will the killer keep raising shell?

Molly Pink and the Tarzana Hookers just can't quit investigating murders. Molly, assistant manager at a bookstore that includes a yarn area, has a complicated love life. Though she's still not over Detective Barry Greenberg, she's dating lawyer Mason Fields. Her life goes downhill fast when her son, Peter, and his supercilious, pregnant girlfriend move in after the failure of a television deal leaves them with nowhere to live. Meanwhile, real estate agent Sloan Renner is helping Miami Wintergarten clean out an inherited house she plans to set up as a short-term rental, much to the fury of her neighbors, who wish she'd sell the place or give up on renting it. Among the house's contents are many boxes of yarn, mostly one-of-a-kind skeins that are too small to make anything with. Soon after Molly has a brainstorm--mix them in a kit to make unusual scarves that will justify their reduced price--Sloan succumbs to a different kind of brainstorm when she's attacked by a drone that dumps a bag of rotting seafood on her, killing her. Barry, whose controlling ways caused their breakup, asks Molly to chat up the neighbors while refusing the ever curious amateur sleuth any information. When Mason suddenly pops the question, Molly and her bestie must ponder her future while they work to catch a killer. Plenty for series fans to enjoy as newbies jump into this pleasant yarn-centric mystery.COPYRIGHT(2021) Kirkus Reviews, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
