"Scraps of Evidence" by Barbara Cameron

Quilting is a hobby that Tess really enjoys. As a police officer, her time off is precious and quilting provides a time of relaxation. Logan is also a police officer, one who would like to get to know Tess better outside of work. Can Logan and Tess find time for dating around her quilting guild? Is there more to the story quilts that Tess makes?

Tess is a woman with two sides - efficient officer and gentle, thoughtful quilter. The love that goes into each quilt is personal and the story each tells tailored for the recipient. Logan knows some of this but really wants her to spend some off hours with him; to give up a night or two of quilting.  When he goes with her to the nursing home to deliver a quilt to her aunt, they find that her Aunt Susan is agitated by the quilt. She notices something on the story quilt that has to do with her uncle and a seriel killer. What does Aunt Susan tell them and how will it affect the investigation? Is the killer around and, if so, who is his next intended victim? Come join Tess and Logan as they work together to solve the mystery.

I really enjoyed this book. The twists and turns kept me interested and I wanted to know if they would find the killer, and if Logan and Tess would get a personal relationship going. If you enjoy mystery, murder, and a little love story thrown in, you will enjoy this book. I received my copy from Litfuse Publicity for participation in the blog tour.
Book Info

About Quilts of Love: Quilts tell stories of love and loss, hope and faith, tradition and new beginnings. TheQuilts of Love series focuses on the women who quilted all of these things into their family histories. A new book releases each month and features contemporary and historical romances as well as women's fiction and the occasional light mystery. You will be drawn into the endearing characters of this series and be touched by their stories.

About the book: Tess has taken some ribbing from her fellow officer, Logan, for her quilting hobby. He finds it hard to align the brisk professional officer he patrols with during the day with the one who quilts in her off-time. Besides, he's been trying to get to know her better and he'd like to be seeing her during those couple nights a week she spends with her quilting guild.

Then one afternoon Tess and Logan visit her aunt in the nursing home and she acts agitated when Tess covers her with the story quilt. Aunt Susan seems to be communicating a message to them about Tess's uncle. There's a story behind this quilt, they realize, one that may lead them to a serial killer. Will they have a chance to have a future together or will the killer choose Tess for his next victim before they find him?
