“A Crafty Killing begins with a bang! Katie is a likeable character with her quirky candy eating and her huge heart. The story line weaves you through multiple people’s lives and leaves open going back into the past, or moving forward. Bartlett is an excellent writer, portraying perfect pictures with her words that the reader just steps in and becomes part of the story with ease.”
