Coffeehouse Mystery #12

Holiday Buzz

* Holiday time is party time in the Big Apple, but the celebration is over at The Great New York City Cookie Swap when Clare discovers the battered body of a young baker’s assistant. To catch the girl’s killer, Clare must investigate “Saint Nick,” crash a pro-hockey party, and dodge a pair of reality TV divas. Partly inspired by O. Henry’s “The Gift of the Magi,” this story recognizes the “holidays are murder,” yet ends with the spirit of Christmas at its heart.

Includes delicious holiday and cookie recipes!
