About 'Die, Die, Birdie'
When her son's new pet becomes evidence in a murder case, scrapbook store owner Kiki Lowenstein-Detweiler discovers that some family secrets are worth killing for.
All eight-year-old Erik wanted for his birthday was a bird. What he got was Solo--a traumatized lovebird whose mate was recently devoured by a boa constrictor at a local pet shop.
But when Kiki learns that Solo originally belonged to Ruthie Goldman, a beloved member of their temple community who died after a brutal home invasion, she realizes this is no ordinary rescue pet.
Solo may be small, but he's carrying big secrets-literally. X-rays reveal the tiny bird has swallowed several diamonds from the robbery that killed his previous owner. Now someone is desperately trying to track down Erik's feathered friend, and Kiki's family is in danger.
As Detective Chad Detweiler investigates the diamond theft that triggered Ruthie's fatal stroke, Kiki uncovers a web of family betrayals, frozen embryos, and twisted ideas about genetic purity.
With her trademark blend of humor, heart, and small-town Missouri charm, Kiki must protect her family while helping to solve a murder that hits frighteningly close to home. Because when inheritance, infertility, and identity collide, even the most loving families can harbor deadly secrets.
"Fans of cozy mysteries will delight in this charming blend of family drama, small-town secrets, and feathered friends. Kiki Lowenstein-Detweiler proves once again that the most dangerous mysteries often begin with the most innocent questions."

Fellow crafters, I'm thrilled to share my latest Kiki Lowenstein mystery with you! If you haven't met Kiki yet, she's a crafter’s dream heroine, a single mom who turned her passion into her livelihood after her world turned upside down.
Kiki Lowenstein isn't just any amateur sleuth. She's one of us—a dedicated crafter who owns at Time in a Bottle, a craft store in St. Louis where creativity flows freely! Kiki knows her way around patterns, scissors, and embellishments as well as she navigates murder mysteries. Her crafting skills aren't just her hobby; they're her way to survive.
In Die, Die, Birdie, https://amzn.to/46PkAMN, Kiki's crafting expertise becomes crucial. Her son’s dream pet is a peach-faced lovebird that’s lost its mate, after swallowing missing diamonds. Yup. This is no ordinary fly-by-night problem. In the same way, we piece together our sewing projects, Kiki pieces together clues, using the same attention to detail that makes a perfect project. Her organizational skills help her see patterns that others miss.
What I love about writing Kiki is how authentic her crafting life feels. She deals with the same challenges we all face: tight budgets that make us choose between new supplies and necessities, the satisfaction of completing a perfect project, and the therapeutic nature of creating something beautiful with our hands. Kiki's craft store, Time in a Bottle, isn't Pinterest-perfect—it's real, lived-in, and full of half-finished projects that speak to every crafter's heart.
Throughout the series, Kiki uses her crafting knowledge in unexpected ways. Plus, the crafting community she's part of mirrors the supportive, creative network that makes our crafting world so special.
Die, Die, Birdie offers crafters both mystery and inspiration. The book captures that wonderful feeling of being surrounded by supplies, working alongside fellow crafters, and finding solace in creativity during difficult times.
Ready to meet a mystery heroine who truly understands the crafter's heart? Kiki Lowenstein is waiting to show you that sometimes the best detectives are the ones who know how to piece things together—one element at a time.
I hope you’ll give Kiki a try. I promise you’ll find a new crafting buddy when you do!
