Murder Under the Mistletoe: Christmas Cozy Mystery (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798273074491)

This Christmas in Sunny Cove, the halls are decked, the cocoa is hot... and a crime is chilling everyone to the bone.

Sammy Baker is busier than Santa's elves, helping fellow restaurateur Thalia host a huge community Christmas dinner to raise funds for a brand-new soup kitchen. It's the most wonderful time of the year, and the entire town is filled with holiday spirit.

But the festive cheer is shattered when a young hostess, Holly, is found standing over the bloody, comatose body of her co-worker. In her hand? The weapon - a heavy metal Christmas tree pole.

Holly insists it was self-defense, but the town's ambitious new District Attorney isn't checking his list twice. He's convinced it was premeditated attempted murder and is determined to put Holly behind bars before Christmas morning. Thalia, convinced her employee is innocent, begs Sammy for help.

Sammy suspects Holly is taking the fall to save another's Christmas. Between planning a massive feast and navigating her own holiday traditions, Sammy must dash through the snow to unwrap a flurry of secrets.

Can she find out who was really naughty before an innocent woman gets a life sentence for Christmas?
