Hark The Herald Angels Slay

Santa´s summer vacation plans turn deadly in this festive mystery from the author of Rest Ye Murdered Gentlemen and We Wish You a Murderous Christmas. The town of Rudolph, New York, has the Christmas spirit all year long--but when homicide heats up a summer holiday, it´s up to shop owner Merry Wilkinson to wrap up the case. In Rudolph, Christmas in July heralds Santa´s arrival by boat to begin his summer vacation at the lake, and Merry Wilkinson, owner of Mrs. Claus´s Treasures, is looking forward to a busy weekend. But she´s caught off guard when her ex-fiancé, Max Folger, unexpectedly arrives with a team from a lifestyle magazine wanting to do a feature on the July festivities. It´s clear that Max´s visit has less to do with business and more to do with winning back Merry´s heart. Merry has too much on her plate to deal with an old flame, but when Max is found strangled to death in Mrs. Claus´s Treasures, she must find out who wanted him dead--and stop a killer from ruining the summer holiday cheer.
