Falling snow, blown-glass ornaments, holiday musicals, and… murder.
Estes Park’s winter wonderland appeal is never more apparent than during the holidays, with flickering Christmas lights, snowfall, and stormy mountain peaks being a postcard-perfect backdrop for family gatherings and holiday cheer. The warm fire of the Cozy Corgi bookshop’s mystery room beckons Winifred Page-Lopez and her corgi sidekick, Watson—after all, reading and napping are perfect ways to spend winter afternoons.
Obligations at the annual Christmas Cottage holiday party, however, force Fred out of her comfort zone—and her broomstick skirts—for an evening of revelry. But the drama is not limited to Christmas musicals, as party-goers trade caroling for brawling. By morning, Fred and Watson find evidence of murder at Hot Air, the next-door blown-glass studio, and Estes Park becomes a parade of suspects.
With the Ghosts of Christmas Past and Present scrambling all the clue-shaped puzzle pieces, Fred and Watson struggle to see the full picture in a conundrum full of gossip, jealousy, family feuds, guilty consciences and… the sound of music. All that’s missing is a holiday miracle to solve this mystery and transport Fred and Watson back before a cozy fire for Christmas.
(This culinary cozy mystery includes a recipe for holiday-party-worthy Roasted Pear and Vanilla Bean Scones with a Salty Honey Glaze.)
