The Alpine Quilt by Mary Daheim

gabmc's review against another edition

Even though I found out after starting to read this book that it was number 17 in the series, it was still good as a stand alone book. The story is a cozy mystery set in the town of Alpine in Washington state where a long gone local resident of the town comes back for a visit - and ends up being poisoned. Emma Lord owns the local newspaper and has become the town's sleuth. This death really bothers her as it happened at the presbytery where her brother is the priest. As she digs further, she realises that her friend and colleague, Vida, may know more than she's letting on.

I love the direction this series has taken at this point. I was getting to a point where I just wasn't sure if I would continue with Emma and the gang, but the last few have been so good, I'm re-hooked!
