About this ebook

Bah, homicide! A mystery in the New York Times-bestselling series with a heroine “irresistible as a cookie fresh from the oven” (Publishers Weekly).
 
Christmas normally descends on Lake Eden, Minnesota, as gently as reindeer alighting on a rooftop—but this yuletide season, the only thing coming down Hannah Swensen’s chimney is a case of murder.
 
Hannah and her pal Lisa have agreed to provide the goodies for the town’s annual production of A Christmas Carol. But before anyone can say “Bah, humbug!” a Santa-sized sackful of trouble ensues. Like the fact that Lisa’s husband will be playing Mr. Claus to his ex-girlfriend Phyllis Bates’ Mrs. Claus. Or that before the curtains even go up Phyllis is found dead in the snow—wearing a costume that the real Mrs. Claus would put on the naughty list. Soon, the suspects pile up faster than snowdrifts while a merry murderer remains on the loose. With clues hard to find, it might take a visit from ghosts of Christmas past to wrap up this mystery in time for the holidays…
 
Includes a dozen holiday recipes from The Cookie Jar!

Ratings and reviews

Didn't move the "story " of Hannah and Ross along at all. Just involves Hannah telling Ross about a murder that happened the previous Christmas. The story line was weak, and totally uninteresting. Don't buy it now...wait and check it out from the library if you really need to read it. Certainly not worth the price.

A riveting mystery that is as tasty as the baked goodies served. A twist with murder mixed in with delicious sounding baked goods. All recipes included!

Utter drivel ... just the sort of ridiculous twattle the Hallmark Movies and Mysteries channel would consider to be worthy of broadcast.
