"A Fair share of "Faith" of a Juan Dela Cruz

Fresh new Author of the “A Knitting Series”, Maggie Sefton

Kelly Flynn a Corporate CPA, needs to return to her hometown, Colorado. It’s not for a family reunion or a corporate business trip but to attend the funeral service of her aunt Helen. The police say that the old lady loans a whopping twenty thousand dollars in cash before she got robbed that night and killed by a mysterious person. In the crime scene something was found, a broken needle together with Helen’s missing knitting’s and the precious “family quilt” which was hung in one of the windows.

Kelly’s instinct says there was something wrong and her gut twisted for the fact that her Aunt Helen loaned that much money. In search for the truth, Kelly uses her instinct alone together with her new friend knitters of Lambspun. She had found out that Helen has a long distance relative somewhere within the vicinity named Martha. She goes there to ask some question regarding Helen’s past and found out that before Helen died Martha remembered Helen saying “Our sins in the past had come to haunt us”. The last thing Kelly remembered doing was poking into somebody’s life in search for information.

It was like a rollercoaster ride of suspense, every plunge put you to a heart pounding tension and anticipation, on your way to the peak is like a cool-down to prepare you for another dip. Until you reach the highest peak that comes with the deepest fall that puts you to a high speed plunge, eventually you feel like the coaster just run-out of rails to hold on and you falls into consciousness and found out the that book you’re reading is done. The characters are well rounded; it’s like looking into swatches of yarns with different color, texture, thickness and softness. Realistic and breathing characters. Nice twist on misleading the readers by adding the love triangle between some of the characters. Maggie was not much of a “details” author, the details were just enough to make it dense and compact for a mini series like this. Fast-forward style of writing, some scenes was omitted without messing the story line.

Knowing Kelly doesn’t have any background on Crime Scene investigation is the ace of this series, she can show you how instinct can be so powerful and reliable on solving crimes together with enough information.
