Fabric shop owner Polyester Monroe is back in business--this time getting wrapped up in a diabolical but crafty case of murder.
With the reopening of her fabric shop rapidly approaching, Polyester Monroe is stocking up on lush fabrics, colorful notions, and best of all, a proprietary weave of velvet. But upon delivery, it's not quite the blend she expected, being ninety-percent silk - and ten-percent corpse. Crushed under a dozen bolts of fabric is local business owner Phil Girard.

There's just the small matter of Genevieve's own incriminating confession: I'm afraid I killed my husband. Now, as the grand opening looms, Poly is torn between a friendship pulling apart at the seams-and finding a smooth killer with a velvet touch…
