Publisher's Synopsis
A dark spirit threatens the Pennyfoot Hotel's shiny and bright Christmas in this mystery in Kate Kingsbury's cozy historical series.
The Christmas Angel is a welcome sight during the winter season-but not this year. A killer is afoot in Badgers End, cutting a lock of hair from the victims and sticking a gold angel on their foreheads. Cecily Sinclair Baxter already promised her husband that she'd take a hiatus from sleuthing. But three killings have created a blizzard of bad publicity-and guests are canceling their hotel reservations.
Cecily pokes around, but the victims seem unrelated. Then the killer claims a fourth and fifth victim, obviously not slowing down for the holidays-so neither will Cecily. She will have to stop the angel of death from striking again, leaving murder under the tree...
