Deck the Halls...Dead

A Penelope Sinclair Cozy Murder Mystery

By: Tessa Aura

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Bath, Maine’s Festival of Lights was supposed to twinkle with cheer, not fizzle with murder.

When demanding organizer, Margot Bellamy, is found electrocuted beside Santa's sleigh, the holiday glow dims fast. Suddenly, Santa's a suspect, the lights keep flickering, and Bath is buzzing louder than a string of faulty bulbs.

Penelope should be busy selling scarves and ornaments at her shop, The Curious Finds, but with Grandma Joyce declaring doom, Teo, Penelope’s Teacup Chihuahua, sniffing up trouble, and the festival on the line, sleuthing feels as inevitable as fruitcake.

Could it be Edna, ousted from her gingerbread booth? Trisha, forever overlooked for Margot's job? Rachel, the volunteer who stormed off humiliated? Or Darren, the stagehand whose toolbox holds more than wrenches?

Even the mysterious out-of-towner with the camera might not be as harmless as he looks.

With danger crackling around every corner, Penelope needs more than tinsel to keep Bath's biggest tradition alive.

Because this year, the Festival of Lights may end in a blackout—or worse, lights out for Penelope’s shop.
