 This is the perfect cozy mystery to get you in the Holiday Mood. Holly White has returned home to Mistletoe, Maine after cancelling her wedding. Her parents own and operate Reindeer Games a Christmas Tree Farm. There are twelve days until Christmas and the Reindeer Games are getting ready to begin. The head of the local Historic Society has been causing trouble all over town. When her body is found on the farm Holly sets out to solve the murder. The local Sheriff is a transplant from Boston who is determined to solve the murder and keep Holly safe. The mystery was good, lots of suspects and red herrings, and the solution made sense. The town and characters are a lot of fun. There is a lot of Christmas, Cookies and Hot Chocolate. Enjoy
