Lie Of The Needle (A Deadly Notions Mystery) - Plot & Excerpts
But Patsy wasn’t waitressing at the diner anymore. And Cyril was gone. Now, after I fed Cyril’s cat, I drove to Sheepville, stopping at Jumpin’ Java Mama, checking every table for the newspaper and inspecting the crossword puzzle, but there were no more clues. Maybe it hadn’t been him after all. When I headed down to Sometimes a Great Notion, carrying a bag from the bakery, I saw Eleanor sweeping the sidewalk in front of her shop. “Hey, did you get a new car?” I called, gesturing at the broom. “Very funny, Daisy.” She spotted the bag full of pastries. “It’s come to this, has it?” “Sadly, yes.” Eleanor stomped the broom on the sidewalk. “This is ridiculous. We’re grown women. We should be able to bake our own treats without expecting Martha to do it all the time. How hard can it be?” I shrugged and waved good-bye and opened the door to Sometimes a Great Notion.
