Murder, mulled wine, and Christmas chaos in a small New Zealand town.

In Willowby, the annual ‘Twelve Tables of Christmas’ feast at St. Agatha's Parish Hall is the highlight of the summer holiday season. With themed tables, lavish dishes, and fierce competition for the coveted Golden Ladle Award, the community is ready to celebrate in style.

But the festivities come to a shocking halt when Trevor Pike, the arrogant Chair of the Garden Society, collapses after sipping poisoned mulled wine. Known for his sharp tongue and endless feuds, Trevor made enemies at every table — leaving almost everyone a suspect.

Café owner and amateur sleuth Tamsin Blake is determined to uncover the truth while juggling gingerbread Santas, café gossip, and even an ugly Christmas jumper contest. With Iris by her side, Inspector Crumpet squawking unhelpfully, and Detective Sergeant Cal Morgan frowning at her interference, Tamsin must untangle a web of secrets before the holiday season is ruined.

Full of festive flavor, quirky characters, and twisty clues, A Feast to Die For is the perfect holiday cozy mystery for fans of small-town whodunnits, culinary sleuths, and Christmas stories with a summery Southern Hemisphere twist.
