Murder by Pins and Needles (Samantha Bowers Mysteries Book 3) Kindle Edition

by Ardelle Holden (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.1 out of 5 stars (7)
Murder by Pins and Needles by Ardelle Holden
… chronicles two decades of the life and death of love, loyalty and betrayal.

It all started when Grace, Samantha’s mother-in-law, found a beautiful Attic Windows quilt in a thrift store, and gave it to Sam and Ben for Christmas.

Sam was absolutely thrilled Christmas morning until she saw the horror on Ben’s face. It hadn’t occurred to her that the menacing ‘murder of crows’ that had congregated in this Attic Windows quilt pattern would trigger Ben’s PTSD.

His reaction gave Sam pause to examine the quilt more closely, and what she discovered gave her chills. So many references to stalking, death and a blue hat? The label read:

Remember me, Nicky.
Love, Mom.
L. Bennett, 2015.

Who was this woman, L. Bennett, so tormented by suspicion she hid clues to her own murder in a quilt for her son, Nicky? Or was it a daughter?

Was she murdered or is she alive, steeped in paranoia?

And would Ben allow her to find out?

Murder by Pins and Needles is the third novel in the trilogy by Ardelle Holden, following A Person of Interest and Murder by Bits and Bytes.

Review

"A great ending to a well written series. - Murder by Pins and Needles is an intricately woven mystery." Erik D'Souza


"I thoroughly enjoyed reading Murder by Pins and Needles, meeting the new characters and cheering them on as the mystery unfolded. All through the novel I waited for the villains to meet their appropriate justice. Thank you, Ardelle, for another masterpiece." S Drebnicki

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Ardelle Holden is the author of the Samantha Bowers Mysteries: A Person of Interest, Murder by Bits and Bytes, and Murder by Pins and Needles. Killing Imaginary Friends is the first in the Oliver Frampton Mystery series.

Look for Ardelle’s first children’s picture book: Terrance the Terrapin, The Turtle who wanted to be a Seeing-Eye Turtle later in 2025.

An historical fiction series is percolating following a Genealogical Quest to Scotland and England in September 2024.

Ardelle and Patrick’s adventures raising two children together in aviation, mining exploration, and in the wild rice lakes of northern Manitoba are ripe fodder for a myriad of short stories.

Besides writing, Ardelle is pursuing her other artistic passions in Nanaimo BC, and Ajijic Mexico.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A fitting finale to a fine trilogy
    Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2022

    Having thoroughly enjoyed the first two books of the Samantha Bowers trilogy, I couldn't wait to get my hands on the third book. Like the first two books, the writing quickly drew me in to the mystery, with its various twists and turns, and to the various key characters. So much so, that I once I'd begun I couldn't put it down!
    You don't need to have read the first two books in the series to enjoy this book, but why deprive yourself of the pleasure of reading three great mystery stories?

    I liked the hidden mystery in the quilt. The story as it unravelled even a deeper mystery. The blue hat topped it all off. Can’t wait to Ardelle, next book. Great writer

    5.0 out of 5 stars So glad I didn’t give up on this one.

    Although I had enjoyed immensely the first two books in the Samantha Bowers series and was greatly looking forward to reading Murder By Pins And Needles, to be honest I had a very difficult time getting into it. I guess being a man, the quilting stuff ( something totally foreign to me ) just did not reel me in the way Ms Holdens previous books had. The characters of Sam and Ben are so well developed and so familiar to me that decided to persevere and see if the book got any more interesting. Well bingo. I was wrong. This is without a doubt Ms Holdens finest work yet. This book has very complex plot lines and there is a need ( maybe for men only ) to really pay attention to all that is going on - and there is a lot going on - The good characters are as always very relatable and the bad characters are pure evil - much more so than in the other two books in the series. There are so many twists and turns and surprises in this book that it becomes very difficult to put down.
