Loop Of Lies

di Joe Murphy (Autore)

Lurking Fear Publishing, 2025

In the quiet town of Harmony Creek, secrets are like stitches—easy to hide, but impossible to keep from unraveling. When young Lily Carter vanishes without a trace, the town is thrown into turmoil. Whispers spread like wildfire: Was she last seen at choir practice? At the café? Or near the long-abandoned mill that everyone avoids? Every account contradicts the last, leaving Deputy Collins drowning in false leads and a town teetering on the edge of hysteria. Enter Mabel Rose, the town's beloved knitter and reluctant sleuth, whose sharp eye and gentle wisdom have untangled Harmony Creek's darkest knots before. To most, she is just a grandmotherly figure with yarn in her basket. But Mabel knows that lies, like loops pulled too tight, always leave a mark. And when stories don't align, it means someone is hiding the truth. As Mabel listens quietly to the town's gossip, visits the Carters' troubled home, and gathers scraps of evidence others overlook—a ribbon torn and left at the mill, a satchel fished from the river, a hidden note tucked into a library book—she begins to see the pattern emerge. Each clue is a stitch in the tapestry of betrayal, weaving a picture more chilling than anyone dared to imagine. But exposing the truth comes at a cost. The Carters are not the only ones with secrets worth protecting, and soon Mabel finds herself caught in a tangle of pride, jealousy, and long-buried shame that threatens to pull the whole town apart. When false accusations erupt, friendships fray, and neighbors turn against each other, Mabel must hold steady, trusting her instincts—and her knitting needles—to guide her toward the loose thread that will unravel the entire web of lies. Loops of Lies is more than a mystery—it is a story of family, community, and the damage secrets can do when left to fester. With every chapter, the suspense builds toward a revelation that will shake Harmony Creek to its core. At its heart, this is a tale of resilience and healing, reminding us that even the most tangled skeins can be smoothed, and that truth, once revealed, can begin the slow, steady work of mending. Perfect for fans of cozy mysteries with heart and bite, Loops of Lies is the sixth installment in The Knitting Detective Series, beloved for its warm setting, wise heroine, and suspenseful storytelling. Curl up with a cup of tea, a ball of yarn, and let Mabel Rose guide you through a town where every neighbor has something to hide—and where even the smallest loop can unravel the darkest deception.
