To Thine Own Self Be True, Stella Crown Series

"A story as unique as a crazy quilt and just as warm."—William Kent Krueger, New York Times bestselling author

Stella Crown rarely takes a break from managing her Pennsylvania dairy farm unless it's to take a spin on her Harley. But in the midst of the Christmas season she treats herself to a new tattoo. Halfway through the sitting at Wolf Ink, her tattoo artist and his wife, Mandy, disappear into the back room and Stella dozes off. When she awakes, annoyed to realize they've not come back, she drives home. Before long the police arrive to inform her that Mandy has been discovered dead—knocked out and left to freeze behind the tattoo parlor. And Wolf is nowhere to be found.

With the help of another tattoo artist and an old flame who's arrived at the farm, Stella sets out to assist in the search for the missing Wolf, and dives into the world of tattooing, where she finds not only a close-knit and knowledgeable community, but also its underworld of back alley hacks, stolen designs, and violent patrons.

Stella, wiser now, knows that to be true to herself, she must first do everything in her power to get Wolf back where he belongs.
