Few things in life are as picture perfect as Christmas in
Maine--until murder dampens the holiday spirit. It must be something in
the eggnog . . .
EGGNOG MURDER by LESLIE MEIER
When a gift-wrapped bottle of eggnog--allegedly from the Real Beard
Santa Club--proves to be a killer concoction for a Tinker's Cove local,
all Lucy Stone wants for Christmas is to find the murdering mixologist
who's stirring up trouble.
DEATH BY EGGNOG by LEE HOLLIS
Food and cocktails columnist Hayley Powell has never cared much for Bar
Harbor's grouchy town librarian, Agatha Farnsworth. But after the
Scroogy senior has a fatal--and suspicious--allergic reaction to
supposedly non-dairy eggnog, it's up to Hayley to ladle out some
justice.
NOGGED OFF by BARBARA ROSS
Julia Snowden's tenant Imogen Geinkes seems to be jinxed. First, her
poorly named "Killer Eggnog" gives all her co-workers food poisoning at
the holiday party, then her boyfriend's body shows up in Julia's moving
truck as she's headed back to Busman's Harbor. Now Julia has to get
moving to catch the cold-hearted culprit.
