Description

Mrs. Jeffries and Inspector Witherspoon should be checking off their Christmas present list but instead theyre listing murder suspects in this latest entry of the beloved Victorian Mystery series, now in paperback.

Harriet Andover had no intention of dying young like her silly siblings had. She intended to outlive them and outdo them as she always had. But Harriet discovers that the best intentions can lead to murder when she is strangled inside her mansion with a house full of holiday guests.

As much as Inspector Witherspoon enjoys his job delivering justice, the last thing he wanted was a complicated murder case just a week before Christmas. He soon discovers that Harriets own husband and grown stepchildren are not overcome with grief and neither are most of her friends. And to put the icing on the Christmas cookies, the room where Harriets body was found was locked from the inside and she had the only key in her pocket.

Mrs. Jeffries and the household have no intention of letting their inspector down and learn that Harriets sister may have died from foul play as well. As the clues mount, this dedicated band of merry sleuths will not rest until theyve delivered a stocking full of coal to a crafty killer.
