Wonderful series of stories, and a great way to find new authors of cozy, craft-oriented amateur detective series. My Reminder List will grow by leaps and bounds adding these authors, and the craft listings at the back of the book are so extensive, I don't want to part with my copy. This is as much a crafter's paradise as it is a short story anthology.

An interesting collection of short stories based on crafts. Each is prefaced with a little history of the craft and finishes with directions for the craft. Not all of the stories are about murder, but several feature quite dark themes. The book has a good mix of stories by some well-known mystery authors.
