A Bodkin for the Bride (Wisteria Tearoom Mysteries Book 4)

Something old, something new, something dead...

It's autumn in Santa Fe, and Ellen Rosings is planning her Aunt Nat€s wedding at the Wisteria Tearoom. Her progress is derailed by a dead body€"yes, another one€"that she finds in her aunt€s driveway.

The corpse is an artist Ellen saw that morning selling gem-handled knives at the Tesuque Pueblo Flea Market. The detective assigned to the case€"not, alas, the handsome, sympathetic Tony Arag³n€"is looking to Ellen to explain why the body ended up in Nat€s driveway. Tony is busy on his own case and can€t help.

Soon the dead artist starts appearing in Ellen's dreams, holding the knife that was found beside him. He wasn€t stabbed. What does it mean?

Between the dreams, the looming wedding, work pressures and a tenacious case of hiccups, Ellen fears she€s unraveling. Then a gem-handled knife is left embedded in Nat€s door, and Ellen knows she must solve the artist€s death before another crime strikes closer to home.

This cozy mystery is the fourth in the Wisteria Tearoom Mysteries series.
