Vanessa Nelson, now an assistant curator at a prestigious Boston art museum, was one of the last to see Rose alive. Now Vanessa is in trouble with the museum, accused of stealing an exquisite painting and dismissed from her position. She seems like the kind of person accustomed to living on the wrong side of the law. Could she be both a thief and a murderer?
Emma and Kelly must go undercover at the museum, hoping to find a link between the theft of a priceless work of art and an unsolved death fifteen years ago. Meanwhile, Emma finds herself in the crosshairs of a conspiracy between her aunt, Dottie Faye Sinclair, and Kelly's mother, Maeve Quigley, who want to "help" Emma gain the attention of Eric Hart, the handsome doctor Dottie Faye believes is Emma's soul mate. Thanks to Vanessa Nelson's underhanded scheming, Emma and Kelly must get to the bottom of the museum heist before they can move forward in their quest to discover the true identity of Rose's killer.

A Deadly Pattern

The spring season is usually the time for new beginnings, but as Easter approaches, Emma Cotton and Kelly Grace—quilting entrepreneurs from Mystic Harbor, Massachusetts—are finding themselves literally at the end of the road.
Travelling to Arizona in the search of the next suspect in the death of their good friend Rose, they find Dakota Longbone, a Native American guide and interpreter from Sedona. Dakota may provide the missing link in Emma and Kelly’s mission to prove Rose’s death was not the accident the authorities have said.
Perhaps she is also the culprit who has been trying to thwart the investigation and will stop at nothing to force Emma and Kelly off the trail. Only time will tell.
Along for the bumpy ride is Emma’s vivacious aunt, Dottie Faye Sinclair. Dottie Faye is definitely in her element in the Southwest. With her younger companions, Dottie Faye thrusts herself into the investigation, braving handsome cowboys and local desperados along the way.
Dottie Faye’s purchase of an ancient Native American bowl throws the women into a chaotic tumult that turns controversial and deadly. Dakota Longbone seems to be at the center of both Rose’s death and another murder in Sedona, but the connection between the two is shrouded in mystery.
The trio will pick a lonesome trek from an upscale resort to an Arizona ghost town to an abandoned mine as they seek an answer to the mystery surrounding Rose’s death

Emma and Kelly must decide whether the suspect of a fifteen-year-old murder case has struck again, or if the killing is purely a coincidence.
