It’s early September in Glenkillen, Scotland, when American expat (and budding romance novelist) Eden Elliott is recruited by the local inspector to act as a special constable. Fortunately it’s in name only, since not much happens in Glenkillen.
For now Eden has her hands full with other things: preparing for the sheepdog trial on the MacBride farm—a fundraiser for the local hospice—and helping her friend Vicki with her first yarn club skein-of-the-month deliveries. Everything seems to be coming together—until the head of the welcoming committee is found strangled to death with a club member’s yarn.
Now Eden feels compelled to honor her commitment as constable and herd together the clues, figure out which ones are dogs, and which ones will lead to a ruthless killer . . .
Eden is half way through her time in Scotland and has settled in nicely (although Vicki's half sister Kristine still needs to warm up to both of them!) Special Constable Sean has finally passed the exam to go to train as a full Police Officer so the Inspector pulls some strings and gets Eden to fill his place. It seems as though it is going to be nice and easy just a couple of hours a week so she can work on her second Highland Romance and then a killing derails everything. Sean is prepared to put off starting at the Police College and everyone is hiding something, oh and Vicki decides to stop dyeing and spinning yarn! Time for Eden to unravel the clues with the help of the Inspector and get everything back to normal.
