Publisher's Summary
Filled with holiday charm and perfect for fans of Leslie Meier, Jacqueline Frost's charming series debut Twelve Slays of Christmas is set at a Christmas tree farm when the jolliest time of the year turns deadly.
When Holly White's fiancé cancels their Christmas Eve wedding with less than two weeks to go, Holly heads home with a broken heart. Lucky for her, home in historic Mistletoe, Maine is magical during Christmastime - exactly what the doctor prescribed. Except her plan to drown her troubles in peppermints and snickerdoodles is upended when local grouch and president of the Mistletoe Historical Society, Margaret Fenwick, is bludgeoned and left in the sleigh display at Reindeer Games, Holly's family tree farm.
When the murder weapon is revealed as one of the wooden stakes used to identify trees on the farm, Sheriff Evan Grey turns to Holly's father, Bud, and the Reindeer Games staff. And it doesn't help that Bud and the reindeer keeper were each seen arguing with Margaret just before her death. But Holly knows her father and is determined to exonerate him.
The jingle bells are ringing, the clock is ticking, and if Holly doesn't watch out, she'll end up on Santa's naughty list.

Nancy Drew type of story, good Christmas mystery.
Good characters, narration was decent. Well plotted gentle thriller, bit of a twist. Looking forward to the next book in series.

An excellent Christmas cozy
Nothing gets me feeling more festive than… murder?
As November rapidly comes to an end, I felt a hankering to indulge myself in a Christmas cozy. So, after asking for recommendations in a Facebook group, I decided to check out Twelve Slays of Christmas; the first instalment in The Christmas Tree Farm Mystery series by Jacqueline Frost. I did not regret this choice.
Now, make no error, his mystery is not deep. In fact, there are many aspects of the story that are either cheesy, too cutesy, or just straight-up unrealistic.
However, with a cup of cocoa and a pair of warm jammies, I found Twelve Slays of Christmas to be just the book I needed to get into the Holiday spirit.
The descriptions of Mistletoe Maine, Particularly the Reindeer Games Tree Farm, made such a perfect setting for this novel. I could imagine the delight of being there in person.
Furthermore, the cast of characters that we meet through the course of the mystery were all quaint and charming (except for … you know … the killer). This fact enhanced by the delightful narration from Allyson Ryan; who did a fantastic job at bringing Mistletoe to life.
Overall, I really enjoyed this cozy mystery. I hope that the author decides to continue this series as I would love to hear more about Mistletoe and its residents.
