Book Description
This collection contains five complete holiday themed cozy mysteries from USA Today Best-Selling author, Shéa MacLeod: Lady Rample and the Ghost of Christmas Past When Aunt Butty gets an idea in her head, there is simply no stopping her. At least, Lady Rample has never found a way. And what Aunt Butty wants is a proper, old-fashioned English country Christmas. So it's no surprise when Lady Rample finds herself celebrating the holidays deep in the Cotswolds. And naturally, Aunt Butty requires everything to be perfect, from the Yule log to the wassail. Unfortunately, the two women get more than they bargain for when a visitor from Lady Rample's past follows her from London, intent on wreaking havoc. Lady Rample and the Yultide Caper A peculiar Christmas party invitation leads our intrepid Lady Rample to Winter Haven and the Yule Manor Inn run by a secretive proprietress who may or may not be a witch, at least according to the locals. What's meant to be a festive event turns into a mystery with a missing host, disappearing Father Christmases, and a blackmailer who may or may not be dead. Fortunately, Lady Rample has several allies close at hand to help not only with the singing of carols and drinking of celebratory cocktails, but also to unravel the clues to this unusual mystery.
