A winter wonderland. A fallen Father Christmas. When a holly-jolly ghost needs justice, can an amateur sleuth save the season before Salem’s holiday spirit goes cold?
Clara Kelly is eagerly anticipating her first Christmas in Salem. Essex Street is aglow with garlands, wreaths, and spooky holiday stations, while children bundled in scarves and mittens line up to whisper their wishes to the town’s resident Santa Claus. But when Santa retreats to his cozy workshop for a cocoa break, the festivities take a chilling turn. He’s discovered slain in the back room—his bowl-full-of-jelly belly no match for a killer hiding in plain sight.
With sleigh bells silenced and carols cut short, Clara must push through a blizzard of frosty alibis and red-and-green-suited suspects to uncover who had reason to put Santa on the permanent naughty list. Can she catch the one who toppled Saint Nick and ensure Salem returns to sleigh bells instead of scandal?
Meanwhile, Clara is closer than ever to clearing the tarnished name of her spectral best friend, Civil War soldier William Kensington, long branded a traitor by history. But if she succeeds in restoring his honor, will justice set him free in more ways than one? Will proving his innocence mean saying goodbye forever?
Santa Ghost is the light-hearted ninth book in the Salem Spirits Cozy Mysteries series. If you like endearing characters, unexpected journeys, and stories with a lot of heart, then you’ll love Dina Marie’s twist of fate.
