The holiday spirit turns deadly in this second collection of six standalone Christmas in July mysteries. From poisoned peppermints to deadly decorations, these small-town sleuths unwrap murder when you least expect it!

Included in this Collection:

Candy Cane Catastrophe

When candy chemist Penny Pepperton's mentor is poisoned during the Christmas in July Festival, she must use her scientific expertise to identify the killer before they strike again. With her teenage niece Holly at her side, Penny discovers that someone has tampered with Walt Cinnamon's revolutionary peppermint formula—and the bitter truth behind his murder is more twisted than any candy cane.

The Christmas Card Killer

Watercolor artist Maribel Page never expected to find the beloved town card exchange organizer dead in the archives. When vintage "revenge cards" with hidden meanings begin appearing around Snowberry Creek, Maribel must decode their sinister messages before the killer sends their final greeting.

Wreath of Wrath

Antique wreath boutique owner Tilda Norridge is stunned when a prestigious collector is strangled with a velvet ribbon from one of her displays. With her stepson and young apprentice, Tilda unravels how the victim's collection of historical wreaths documented decades of town secrets—secrets someone is willing to kill to protect.

The Nutcracker Nightmare

Former ballerina Liddy March's Christmas in July production turns tragic when the Sugar Plum Fairy is strangled during her performance. With her stage manager brother Elio, Liddy must determine which member of the cast or crew tampered with the costume—before another dancer takes their final bow.

Eggnog and Alibis

When food inspector Percy Dratch is found drowned in a vat of holiday eggnog at Hazel Granger's dairy farm, suspicion falls on Hazel herself. With the help of town gossip columnist Minnie Tubs, Hazel must clear her name and find the real killer before her farm's reputation is spoiled forever.

The Christmas Light Conspiracy

Lighting designer Clementine Vale returns to her hometown to take over the famous Christmas in July light display, only to discover sabotage, blackmail, and murder. When an insurance adjuster is electrocuted by tampered wiring, Clementine must illuminate the truth before the killer strikes again.

Perfect for fans of festive mysteries, small-town secrets, and amateur sleuths with a knack for uncovering the truth. Each story features a completely new cast of characters and a standalone mystery that can be read in any order.
