🦙 Alpaca farm owner and fiber artist Al Pacino is preparing for the annual Alpaca Breeders Expo when the farm's most demanding client—a notorious luxury fiber buyer with impossible standards—is found dead in the shearing barn, a rare silver huacaya alpaca standing guard over the body. The police suspect a tragic barn accident, but Al notices the alpaca's fiber has been deliberately contaminated and the victim's quality control reports contain coded messages about fiber fraud. With her farm under investigation and the alpaca community humming with anxiety, Al must herd together the clues. Assisted by her farmhands and the handsome textile geneticist analyzing fiber DNA, Al uncovers a scheme involving alpaca identity switching, fraudulent fiber grading, and a sophisticated operation diluting premium fleece with inferior wool. From suspicious micron counts that reveal blended fibers to DNA markers that don't match the breeding records, every silky lock tells a story. But when Al discovers the victim was systematically downgrading small farms' premium fiber to buy it cheaply for luxury brands, she realizes the killer is protecting small breeders from exploitation softer than any alpaca fleece. With the breeders expo approaching and the real fiber fraudster still spinning lies, Al must comb through the evidence before her own farm gets permanently sheared.
