Description
There's usually a chill in the air when Halloween arrives, but in these three novellas by beloved cozy mystery authors Leslie Meier, Lee Hollis, and Liz Ireland, the crimes are even colder than the haunted climate.
Halloween Night Murder by Leslie Meier
After a tiring but satisfying day of organizing Halloween festivities, Lucy Stone is surprised by a lone late-night trick-or-treater at her home in Tinker's Cove, Maine. The next morning, she's heartbroken to learn that the teenager died in a hit-and-run just minutes after she gave him the last of her candy supply. Haunted, she starts digging into his story—and discovers some dark secrets.
Death of a Halloween Night Stalker by Lee Hollis
Bad weather has stranded restaurateur Hayley Powell and her friends in rural Maine—and the only shelter available is a spooky spot where they're welcomed warmly by the lady of the house, but coldly by her suspicious, gun-toting son. They're even more nervous after he scares them with his Halloween zombie costume—but the real fright is yet to come.
Mrs. Claus and the Wily Witch by Liz Ireland
Disgraced elf Flake has returned from exile just in time for Halloween, but not everyone in Christmastown thinks he's truly reformed. When Pumblechook the snowman suffers a mysterious fate, and a fellow elf is felled by Flake's caramels, Mrs. Claus must determine whether the sticky-fingered Flake has become a hardened criminal—or if sorcery has invaded Santaland.
