Holiday | Mystery Cozy

Nothing is better than a Christmas-themed cozy mystery from Kate Carlisle. I was very excited about this book since I love the holidays and this series. There’s just something special about the charm that Carlisle puts into her books and this book is no exception.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book from the beginning to the end. The characters and mystery kept me hooked from the first page, making this one of my favorites in this series.

I loved the way Carlisle writes as well. It’s always free-flowing and eloquent, making it easy for readers to enjoy. If you’re looking for a holiday-themed book to get you in the Christmas spirit, then look no further. THE KNIFE BEFORE CHRISTMAS has got you covered.

SUMMARY

Contractor Shannon Hammer hopes for a peaceful Christmas with her fiancé, Mac, until murder throws a wrench in her holiday plans in a brand-new installment of the USA Today bestselling Fixer-Upper Mystery Series.

Christmas has come to Lighthouse Cove, but business hasn’t slowed down for Shannon Hammer. She’s been contracted to renovate a local hotel owned by the Garrisons, a family that’s so devoted to the holidays they serve a seven-course dinner every night from Thanksgiving through Christmas. Last year’s festivities featured a train that transported guests around the breathtaking Cliffside property. This year, Shannon and her crew have been commissioned to build a Victorian-style carnival midway with games and prizes galore.

Everyone in town loves the hotel’s spirit, except the Garrisons’ children and their spouses, who are hum-bugged by the money being wasted on holiday cheer while their inheritance goes up the chimney. Things turn nasty when a mischief-maker close to the family is found dead. It’s up to Shannon and Mac to catch a sinister Scrooge before all of Lighthouse Cove receives coal for Christmas.
