Tucked away inside an old lighthouse in Beacon Harbor, Michigan,
bakeshop café owner Lindsey Bakewell is ready to make her first
Christmas in town shine bright. But her merry plans crumble fast when
murder appears under the mistletoe...
With the spirit of the holidays wafting through the Beacon Bakeshop,
Lindsey thinks she has the recipe for the sweetest Christmas
ever--winning the town-wide cookie bake-off. Unfortunately, striving for
a picture-perfect December in Beacon Harbor is a lot like biting into
stale shortbread. Low on staff and bombarded by visits from family,
Lindsey can barely meet demands at work, let alone summon the confidence
to face fierce competition...
Self-appointed Christmas know-it-all Felicity Stewart is determined to
take the top spot in the bake-off, and she's not afraid to dump a little
coal in everyone's stocking to do it. Just as the competition heats up,
everything falls apart when the judge is found dead--and covered in
crumbs from Lindsey's signature cookie!
Solving a murder was never on Lindsey's wish list. But with her
reputation on the line during the happiest time of the year, she'll need
to bring her best talents to the table in order to sift out the true
Christmas Cookie culprit.
