Description
From the author of Sweet Hollow Women, The Port Elspeth Jewelry Making Club, and Murder at Mistletoe Manor, it's a holiday who-dunnit/rom-com that will keep you guessing!This is book two in the Windy Pines mystery series. It can be read as a stand-alone novella.Windy Pines, Idaho, is known for three things: Beautiful mountain views, the world's most incompetent police force, and, lately, murder. Charlotte Smyth's new job as the O'Leery Snowboarding Inc.'s 'Spreader of Cheer' is anything but a perfect fit. She hates sports, cold weather, and anything bordering on 'extreme'.Within days of starting her new job, she finds herself in a sea of political incorrectness, verbal abuse, and long hours, with little relief in sight. In a small town like Windy Pines, where a person's lucky to find a job at all, her only choice is to make it work.Her boss Shane Letcher is just as disappointed with Charlotte, whom he's decided isn't cool enough to understand the company culture or raise the spirits of the staff. Giving her one last chance to prove herself, Shane decides the O'Leery Christmas party is Charlotte's make-it or break-it opportunity. She needs to deliver a fun, fabulous time, or find a new place to work.What Charlotte doesn't know is that even if she can throw together a spectacular soiree, there are schemes happening behind the scenes that could foil her party plans. Charlotte and her new love interest had better unravel this mystery before the Windy Pines police decide to arrest someone, or they may find themselves spending Christmas in jail!If you like this book, you'll love Holly's other books that take place in Windy Pines: Murder at Mistletoe Manor and (coming in November, 2019) In the Heart of Windy Pines.
