Sneak Peek

Murder Goes Caroling

Ringing in the holidays just hit a sour note. With mayhem threatening to turn festive carols into dirges, can a gifted pianist unmask a nasty Scrooge? Piper Haydn loves Christmas. Excited for her charming town’s upcoming celebrations, she refuses to leave anything to chance whether it be decorations or Christmas music. But she goes from rhythm to blues when she discovers the donated antique nativity set in her care has been senselessly vandalized. Fearing the wrath of the curmudgeon who donated the expensive display, the ever-meticulous woman grabs her artsy friend and dives in to investigate. Can Piper bring back the jingle by sleuthing out the slippery scoundrel?

    With her recital hours away, Piper's piano arrives with the body of her ex-fiancé inside. To avoid a murder charge, she must shift her attention from music to murder. Can Piper and friends solve the case before the killer solos in on another victim?
