Old-Fashioned Christmas Murder

By Meredith Curtis

Maggie King is looking forward to her first Christmas in Hopeville with caroling, baking cookies, and the annual tree-lighting on Main Street. While Matt studies for finals at Tidewater Theological Seminary, Maggie discovers the Romeo and Juliet-like story of Evelyn and Jack whose untimely deaths brought healing to the Stevenson and Madison family feud but left many questions unanswered. When Louise Stevenson tries to rekindle the family feud by threatening to expose family secrets and unearth a secret treasure, she ends up dead -and of course, Maggie finds the body

Volunteering at the Christmas museum with her friend Anika is a perfect place to investigate the murder. But before she can put the pieces together, things get out of hand, and someone dresses up in Maggie's coat and a blond wig to frame her. Will she solve the mystery in time for a Merry Christmas? And is there a hidden treasure?

BONUS: Free Lebkuchen recipe, a German Christmas cookie.
