A dead elf and stolen gifts put a damper on the Christmas season in this spirited whodunit from the author of the Pooch Party Cozy Mysteries.
It’s the most magical time of the year, and Bramblett County is swept up in preparations for the annual Christmas parade. Gifts for the children have been wrapped with care, the parade route is set, and Lily joins her friends to bake at Millie’s Cafe, churning out cookies like there’s no tomorrow.
The baking party is all fun, laughter, and flour fights . . . until a dead elf is discovered in the cafe’s walk-in freezer. When the gifts for the town children turn up missing, the bakers realize that someone is trying to rain on their Christmas parade!
Join Lily and her crew of sassy southern ladies as they strike out to track down the culprit and save Christmas.
