Cookies, Murder, and Kitties.... OH MY!!

Linda Reilly... you did it again, even better! Your twists in this book were fabulous. So many more than just a murderer and I didn't see any of them coming.

Who doesn't like a side of murder with your Christmas Cookies?? Everything stops when an old miserable spinster suddenly dies at the cookie bake off. With many enemies, its hard to determine if this was an accidental death or murder. With investigations showing signs that it was intentional, everyone becomes suspect, even Lara's best friend's mom.
There is also another mystery to solve. Lara finds a cryptic letter that could be reporting a 30 year old murder. Is this a coincidence? Could the past have anything to do with the present?

I could not put this book down and it kept me guessing the entire time. I absolutely adore the relationship between Lara and Aunt Fran. I love what they are doing for the kitties.

I received an ARC of this book from NetGalley in return for an honest review.
