I thought owning a yarn shop would help me get better deals on my favorite luxury blends. Instead, I'm spending my days protecting high-end inventory from a clever thief who seems to know exactly which skeins are worth stealing.

It's not that I'm the police's prime suspect this time, which is a nice change, but watching someone systematically rob the shop I inherited from my late friend rattles differently. This is my community's business, and when the police investigation stalls, it's up to me to find the answers.

Naturally, I turn to my partner in crime-solving, Rumple, a sassy, talking raccoon who is equal parts rescue and roommate. Except Rumple has discovered the joys of binge-watching television and absolutely refuses to leave the house. He's developed an irrational fear of cats and a very rational preference for the couch. Getting him to help investigate is like trying to teach a yarn ball to roll uphill.

But someone has to catch this thief before they empty the shop of its most expensive stock. And if Rumple won't go with me, I'll have to be clever enough to solve this mystery alone.

Perfect for fans of small-town charm, quirky sidekicks, and clever amateur sleuths, Kill One, Purl Two is a cozy tale of found family with neurodivergent characters that proves retirement is anything but boring.
