Mixing Mystery and Romance in a Fizzy 1930s Cocktail!

A glittering ball. A missing necklace. A Christmas caper in high society.

Home from London for the holidays, Clive and Henrietta—the newly minted Lord and Lady

Linley—arrive at Highbury with baby Teddy in tow and a houseful of surprises waiting. Clive's

mother has remarried. The stables are slated for demolition. And Antonia has already promised

the Winnetka Country Club that her son and his wife will be the prize exhibit at this year's

Christmas ball.

But things go awry when the club's collection of gifts for the poor vanishes from a locked

storeroom, and a young woman’s heirloom necklace disappears the same night. Clive calls it a

prank, but Henrietta isn't so sure—especially when every clue points toward one of Antonia's

own circle.

Across town, Elsie is hosting her first Christmas Eve at Palmer Square but when a lost old man

and his cat turn up on the doorstep, the evening doesn’t go quite as planned.

With the gifts due to the neediest families on Christmas Eve, Clive and Henrietta have only three

days to find a thief who may be sitting at their own dinner table. Can they unwrap the truth

before Christmas morning?

Perfect for readers who enjoy cozy Christmas mysteries featuring married sleuths, a country-club

theft, a formidable mother-in-law, found family around the holiday table, and a 1930s holiday

with no murder required.

Fans of Downton Abbey who want a Christmas mystery—with warmth, wit, and a dash of 1930s

Chicago—will curl up with this one in a single evening.
