The Annual Christmas Cookie Crawl should be the coziest event of the season — carols on the square, cocoa at Books and Brew, and holiday cheer on every corner. But when the town choir director is found dead just before the Tree Lighting Festival, Piper Page’s holiday plans take a chilling turn.
With the help of the Murder Mystery Book Club — and her clue-finding cat, Jazz — Piper dives into the case. Rival carolers, cranky council members, and cookie-crawl competitors all have something to hide, and the suspect list is longer than Santa’s naughty list.
Between managing festival chaos, wrangling the book club’s antics, and working alongside Detective Luke Harper, Piper must catch the killer before Christmas cheer turns into Christmas fear.
Cocoa, Carols, and Conspiracy is a festive, small-town whodunit full of holiday spirit, laugh-out-loud moments, and just the right touch of romance — perfect for fans of Murder, She Wrote and cat-loving sleuths everywhere.
This holiday mystery was the perfect seasonal read! With its cozy setting, quirky cast, and just the right touch of suspense, it kept me turning the pages to see how everything would tie together. I especially appreciated the attention to small details that made the town and its residents come alive.
If you enjoy mysteries that blend warmth, intrigue, and a dash of chaos (the best kind!), this is one to pick up for your next winter read. Perfect for curling up with a blanket and a cup of cocoa. 🎄🔍
