K.D. McCrite, Ozarks Author, Writes Artistic Mysteries

I’ve had the pleasure of reading two books from the Annie’s Mysteries Unraveled series (Annie’s Mysteries) which were elegantly written by K.D. McCrite.

Unraveled Stalkings

Kate Stevens and her crocheting talent have moved to a TOTALLY different part of the country. As K.D. McCrite takes Kate — a believable and warm character — from Maine to Texas, I was entirely enjoying the descriptions of her new home and her creations. Had to grin at her experiences with Social Media and the Internet because they sound so much like folks I know who are just trying get familiar with technology.

Then, the author scared the ‘bejeezus’ out of me with the STALKER! Who is doing this — has to be someone Kate Stevens knows and probably trusts. Without writing a story that never ends, K.D. McCrite gives readers colorful detail and keeps the ‘secret’ till just the right page.

Kate Stevens is back in K.D. McCrite’s latest mystery novel, part of the Annie’s Mysteries Unraveled series. Kate is working on a new men’s sweater pattern for the coming holidays — light romance when she gets her favorite hunk, Peter Matthews to be the size model as she develops the design.

Between the stitches, Kate and Vivi find a mutual friend involving them in a local charity ball which demands each guest come in costume. These unrecognizable guests participate in an unusual treasure hunt at other homes in the community. Now, the mystery kicks in. K.D. McCrite writes a smooth mystery along with the colorful descriptive story, managing to make Vivi a prime suspect in the plot. The other characters have to figure out ‘who dun it’ as they do beautifully under the guidance of McCrite’s agile pen. Readers are kept guessing right up to the ending.

I admire K.D. McCrite’s Writing Style

I admire K.D. McCrite’s modern writing style — she gives the readers full pleasure without making the book seems as if it will never end. She gets it all told in an amazingly pleasant amount of space. Readers get vivid descriptions, alerting drama, light romance and a darn good ‘yarn’ (pun intended) in a beautiful physical package from the Annie’s Mysteries Unraveled series with NO vulgarity. Great for readers of any age who want to read a good book.

Disclaimer — I am personally acquainted with the author and have talked with her in the past about the energy required to write a seriously good mystery that still gives readers pleasure reading with good description, a touch of romance, solid friendship and family with NO vulgarity.

Did I mention that these books from Annie’s Mysteries Unraveled are gorgeously presented and edited? To say I loved the books is a major understatement.

K.D. has novels in other series from Annie’s Mysteries: Annie’s Attic Mysteries and Annie’s Quilted Mysteries which I have enjoyed as much as these. All excellent reading. Since Annie’s Mysteries are a membership source, if you are not a member, sometimes you can find copies of the books in the secondary market. For more good reading, I highly recommend the Confessions of April Grace series. While April Grace is a young person, the stories have poignancy for all ages and wonderful life lessons gently delivered.
