Welcome to Quilt City—where the stitches are neat, but the crimes are messy.

Set in Paducah, Kentucky—the heart of American quilting—Bruce Leonard’s Hadley Carroll Mysteries follow a sharp-witted journalist-turned-mayor with a knack for solving crimes (and stitching a mean nine-patch). With her loyal quilting circle, small-town charm, and a city full of secrets, Hadley takes on everything from cozy whodunnits to high-stakes conspiracies—all while juggling friendships, family, and the occasional QuiltWeek® chaos.

Packed with humor, heart, and just the right amount of murder, this award-winning mystery series is perfect for fans of small-town sleuthing with a quilty twist.

Steven ★★★★★

I tore through the first three in a weekend—the way the quilting details weave into the mystery plot is so clever, and the Paducah setting feels like a character itself. The sharp-witted journalist lead keeps the pacing tight, and I never guessed the killer once.

Timothy ★★★★★

The Paducah setting really brings the quilting community to life, and I love how the mystery weaves in details about local fabric shops and quilt shows. It's a cozy read with enough twists to keep me guessing.

Ellie ★★★★★

I was hooked by the second chapter—the Paducah quilting setting gives the whodunit a cozy, distinctive twist. The way Leonard layers the town’s history into the plot keeps you guessing right up to the final reveal.
