Elderflower Tea Shop is nearby to Cardinal Woolsey’s, the yarn store Lucy works and home towards the late-night Vampire Knitting Club. The tea shop owners are a pair of octogenarian spinsters and older family friends, therefore Lucy wants to help clear up the mystery that’s keeping their store closed. But murder isn’t the just issue troubling the Miss Watts. A man provides come between them. Miss Florence Watt has been romanced by a vintage flame, one Mary Watt distrusts.

In between determining who, among his about Stitches and Witches many foes, may have poisoned the unpleasant Colonel Montague, Lucy’s trying to brush through to her magic spells before the Wiccan potluck dinner her witchy cousin insists she attend. Nevertheless, she’s still settling into being a witch and since she botched a spell and blew up her kitchen, she’s taking the magic slowly.

Her knitting endeavors aren’t far better. Between purling when she should knit and shedding so many stitches her hand-knit scarf looks like it was attacked by giant moths, a couple of days Lucy thinks she’ll pack it all in and move back to Boston. She might, except she’d miss her precious undead grandmother, her new friends, one extremely sexy vampire, and a local detective who is very much alive.
