Mystery Woman Sleuth
An all-new Yuletide mystery featuring the incomparable
staff of the Pennyfoot Hotel— from “a descendant of Agatha
Christie.”(The Statesman Journal) (OR)
A merry hustle-and-bustle always heralds the holidays at
the Pennyfoot. Even as she prepares for the holiday meal,
Cecily Sinclair Baxter is also helping her friend Madeline
plan her wedding. And this year, Cecily has a cracking
surprise for her guests—Christmas crackers. Once the
crackers pop, one lucky guest will discover a beautiful
pearl brooch…
But when two crackers go astray,
things turn less than jolly. A mysterious fire has broken
out in an upstairs room, killing the mood—and two guests.
And at the bottom of it all: one of the missing Christmas
crackers. Cecily’s dead-set on solving this mystery before
another deadly present turns up…
We have just "discovered" you at our small county library. We did order your christmas book in 2007 and some time this year my boss discovered your series. It is hard in a library as small as ours (with a small budget) to add new authors, but you are definitely one. Everyone who has checked one of your books out has enjoyed the read. We are slowly adding to our collection and hope to have them all soon. Keep up the good writing! (Patricia Barraclough 8:22pm January 20)
