Holiday Cozy

Skyler discovers her growing reputation as a detective can work against her when she gets strong armed into a murder investigation by a hotel manager wanting to salvage his hotel's reputation. Months have passed since Skyler's last case but another guest drops dead, this time at an enormous gala in New York celebrating an upstart high tech company.

When Mayfair’s newly minted Chamber of Commerce goes off the rails, and decides to build an ice skating rink, a decades-old skeleton is uncovered. The secrets it reveals threaten more than the town’s Christmas plans. Feeling responsible since the let’s-attract-more-tourists idea was hers initially, service dog trainer Marcia Banks is determined to help her police detective boyfriend solve the mystery - whether he wants her help or not. Maybe she can wheedle more out of the townspeople than he can.

Party guests congratulate Charity Basham, owner of Sassy Supplies Crafts & More, on the scariness of her backyard skeleton decoration. Unfortunately, Charity didn't put out any skeleton decorations. With the discovery of a dead body, her Halloween party turns into a nightmare. With her fingerprints (and some white cat fur) are all over the murder weapon, Charity finds herself at the top of the suspect list. Can she clear her name before the dishy Detective Sota arrests her for murder?
