There isn't much crime in Lilyvale, Arkansas, but local authorities have their hands full with Ms. Sherry Mae Stanton Cutler and her housemates - a crafty group of retirees who've dubbed themselves the Silver Six.

But when Sherry Mae's niece, Nixy, arrives to keep them in line, Lilyvale also plays host to a killer.  When Leslee Stanton  Nixy  Nix gets the latest call from Lilyvale detective Eric Shoar, she knows it means trouble. There's been another kitchen explosion at her Aunt Sherry's farmhouse, and the dreamy-voiced detective has had enough. If Nixy doesn't check on her aunt in person, the Silver Six could become wards of the court. But the trouble Nixy finds in Lilyvale is not at all what she expects. The seniors are hosting a folk art festival at the farmhouse, featuring Sherry's hand-woven baskets, when land developer Jill Elsman arrives to bully Nixy's aunt into selling the property.

When Jill is later found dead in the cemetery, Sherry is suspected of weaving a murder plot, and it's up to Nixy and the Silver Six to untangle the truth. Recipes and crafting tip included!

Reviews for Basket Case: Silver Six Crafting #1

A fun new series with a comfy, small-town vibe and lots of heart...The Silver Six truly sparkle! --New York Times bestselling author Ali Brandon A winner from the first page until the last! --New York Times bestselling author Jennie Bentley A slew of townsfolk I'd love to meet--as well as a few I wouldn't--all combined into a delightful and tasty mystery full of intrigue and twists...Basket Case is full of Southern charm, food...and mystery. --Linda O. Johnston, author of the Barkery & Biscuits Mysteries Ms. Haddock, a masterful writer, obviously has humor running through her DNA and mystery deep within her bones. You can't help but admire her 'silver' characters' energy, smarts and loyalty. I wish I had that much oomph in my gas tank. Add a bright and funny niece along with a handsome detective, villains who deserve their comeuppance, and this book hooks you. I'm looking forward to many more Silver Six books. --L.A. Sartor, author of Viking Gold
