Exceptional the perfect holiday entertainment. Publishers Weekly STARRED REVIEW

This Christmas season, travel to the North Pole youve never seen beforewhere Santas new wife, April Claus, is not only set on creating the perfect holidayshes also set on solving the perfect crime

Love is full of surprisesthough few compare to realizing that youre marrying the real-life Santa. April Claus dearly loves her new husband, Nick, but adjusting to life in the North Pole is not all sugarplums and candy canes. Especially when a cantankerous elf named Giblet Hollyberry is killedfelled by a black widow spider in his stockingshortly after publicly arguing with Nick.

Christmastown is hardly a hotbed of crime, aside from mishaps caused by too much eggnog, but April disagrees with Constable Crinkles verdict of accidental death. As April sets out to find the culprit, itll mean putting the future of Christmas on the lineand hoping her own name isnt on a lethal naughty list . . .
