She wants to go down fighting, and to take as many serial killers with her as she can, but she can feel herself slipping.
    
    While investigating the murders, a hospice worker recognizes the tired look in Rachel’s eye. She can’t hide her condition anymore and she knows it. 
    
    It is time to confess her truth—but not before she catches her last killer.

    Deep secrets and enemies piling up at my door left little room for anything else. Then she came along. A woman I never saw coming. But how can I live for anything when my soul remains so far from saving, the devil himself considers it home? Grief can force you to do unspeakable things and tragedy can make you unrecognizable, even to yourself. I guess for a man who used to find God, but now only sees the devil, inflicting revenge isn't a part of life. It's the entirety of it.

    As her friend's matron of honor, Paislee Shaw vows to solve the mystery of a missing brooch and a dying wedding guest . . . 
     
     
     
    Paislee's specialty sweater shop and yarn business Cashmere Crush, in the charming Scottish village of Nairn, is closed today for a special occasion. Her bonnie bestie Lydia is moments away from walking down the aisle of the church at Old Nairn Kirk to wed Corbin Smythe. Gramps and Paislee's eleven-year-old son Brody are seated in the pews with the other guests—the only family not in attendance is their black Scottish terrier Wallace. As matron of honor, Paislee is at her friend's side when Lydia lets out a frantic cry. The Luckenbooth brooch her betrothed gave her is missing. A traditional Scottish love token, the gold heirloom has been in his family for generations and not wearing it could bring bad luck—according to the superstitious Smythes. 
     
     
      
    But the real misfortune falls on a distraught cousin who suddenly disrupts the ceremony and dies with the brooch in her hand. The Smythes insist it's the curse. But Paislee must broach the subject of . . . murder. And was the intended victim the guest—or the bride? Only Paislee can determine who to pin the murder on . . .
