A Fiona Fleming Cozy Mystery Novella
By Patti Larsen

Christmas lights. A holiday parade. And a body where Santa should be.

Fiona Fleming is ready for a little Christmas cheer in Reading. Between the annual holiday parade, the tree lighting, and the possibility of a date with the handsome Sheriff Crew Turner, Fee has plenty to look forward to.

Until someone’s festive plans take a deadly turn.

When a corpse steals the spotlight from Santa, Fee finds herself drawn into another murder investigation. But this time, the questions hit close to home. With her father’s handling of the original crime under scrutiny, Fee is determined to uncover the truth, even if digging into the past threatens to spoil her holiday spirit… and her chances with Crew.

Can Fee untangle the secrets behind the Christmas-time killing before the season turns even darker?

A small-town Christmas, a suspicious death, and a budding romance make for one holiday no one in Reading will forget.

Curl up with this festive Fiona Fleming Cozy Mystery novella, filled with holiday spirit, small-town secrets, and a murder that definitely wasn’t on the Christmas list.

Reading order note: Deck the Halls and Murder takes place after Book 4, Ghosts and Goblins and Murder. Reading the series through Book 4 before starting this novella is strongly recommended to avoid spoilers.
