Review: Splintered Silence

Splintered Silence by Susan Furlong
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Brynn and her cadaver dog Wilco, both injured in an IED explosion head back home to her gipsy clan roots in the Appalachian Mountains and ugly memories, drug runners, rape and murder.

Amazing characters and lots of action. The book just kept getting better and better. I never saw the end coming.

This book is the first in a new series called Bone Gap Travellers Mystery.

If you read just one book this year. Splintered Silence by Susan Furlong should be it.

Edges & Hems

Edges & Hems

 by Sandy Lightfoot

TK002 $7.50. 9pgs. 17 patterns, 4 of which require a ribber. Many of the patterns have added variegations. For the standard gauge, but you can adjust rows and stitches for the bulky or mid-gauge. Notes on what each trim or edging can be used for, some have lace or ribbons added to them. This is really a great technique book. #9 is my favorite. Another must have technique book for your knitting library. http://www.sandylightfoot.com 250-423-7176
