by Kate Kingsbury (Author)

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...
