The Ghost of Christmas Pastel (Cybil Lawson #1) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798986013787)

A light-hearted amateur sleuth mystery with a cup of woven secrets, a dash of danger and a pinch of holiday spirit.

Despite her car being as broken as her checking account, her uncle coming home after thirteen years of being away, and her best friend volunteering her for the Annual Christmas Dinner at their church, Cybil Lawson is determined to have a great Christmas this year. That is, until disaster strikes when the choir director is found dead in the middle of the road with evidence of a sleigh and rogue reindeer at fault.

All joking aside, the number of suspects is longer than Santa's Nice List, but Cybil's main interest is merely to convince the new officer on the force that she has no hand in the foul play. That could prove to be rather difficult, however, as Robbyr's Cove turns into a sea of unfolding drama and danger overnight.

Things are messy enough without another body being thrown into a mix of robbery, stalking, threats, judgmental home bakers and a plethora of clues. As the case drags on, her best friend finds herself caught in the cross-hairs of the investigation and it's up to Cybil on whether she gets the recipe right or bakes them into jail.

Oh, and did I mention a missing reindeer by the name of Rudolph?
