A Knotted Murder
(2026)(The third book in the Amelia Hartford Cozy Mystery series)
A novel by Angie Street
A hometown festival. A tangled past. And a murder knotted up in years of secrets.
Amelia Hartford can’t wait for Maplewood’s annual Maple ‘n’ Cider Festival. This year she’s carrying on her late grandmother’s tradition herself, serving her famous apple-maple cinnamon muffins.
But the celebration barely begins before Bailey slips his leash and bolts across the grounds. Behind the contest tent, Amelia finds him next to Madison Sanderson sprawled on the ground, a colorful silk scarf knotted around her neck.
The scarf looks exactly like one of her best friend Lila’s.
Madison came back to town to make an entrance as her husband is set to announce his run for mayor during the festival, now it’s the place she died. Soon after, both Lila and her visiting brother are under the sheriff’s eye.
Amelia unwilling to let this stand. The more she digs, the longer the list of people who never forgave Madison’s past behaviors grows; a jilted sweetheart, the classmates she tormented, and even a blackmailer she’d paid for years.
Then the warnings start. Stay out of it – or you’re next.
Amelia must untangle decades of secrets before the killer ties off the last loose end.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
