About this listen

Deck the mall with boughs of holly and murder.

Attempts to get Stacie in the holiday spirit fall flat when Santa’s elf finds herself in a shooter’s crosshairs. With another shooting, initial theories go up in smoke and the search is on for the true motive. Stacie avoids her own stressors following up on the shooting and murder. Faced with relationship turmoil and a killer on the loose, Stacie embraces her "bah humbug" perspective as she seeks to identify the culprit.

Let this cozy holiday mystery novella with Stacie and her friends get you in the holiday spirit.

A great series

This is a good cozy mystery. It is almost four hours long and a lot is covered in that time. I never guessed "who did it". I will definitely red more books by Christa Nardi. We have enjoyed all the books in this series.

The narration was very good. I would definitley listen to Naomi Rose-Mock narrate other books.

I was given this book at my request and have volumtarily left this review.

Cozy mystery

Holidays, Hijinks & Murder is a clean cozy mystery appropriate for older teens and up in my opinion. I enjoyed the twists and turns of the storyline and I’m looking forward to more stories from the author. The narrator gave a great performance.


*= that’s time I’ll never get back
**= struggled to get into it/inconsistencies
***= decent
****= enjoyed and glad I listened
*****=thought provoking/exceptional

Ho ho ho Stacie helps solve a homicide

The title “Holidays, Hijinks & Murder” (by Christa Nardi) is the perfect title for the story. While preparing for Christmas, Staci Maroni and her friends become embroiled in a shooting and murder at the mall. I love the camaraderie of the friends and their willingness to help each other. Of course, they help solve the mysteries, and have a great Christmas party. The narration by Naomi Rose-Mock is excellent. She creates unique voices for each character and brings the story to life.

Bah humbug indeed, in all the BEST ways!

When Santa’s Elf takes a bullet at the mall Staci finds herself front and center in another investigation! Aptly named, Holidays, Hijinks & Murder is filled with delightfully defined realistic characters, features an interesting, smooth flowing plot that leaves no unanswered questions and dialogue that rings true! The narration is delightfully authentic and truly a pleasure for the ear! I loved everything about this one, especially that ending! No spoilers! Grab it and you’ll see exactly what I mean! Five fist pumping stars!

Great characters

This is the fifth book in the Stacie Maroni Mystery series. It begins with Stacie going shopping with friends for Christmas presents. A t the mall, they hear shots fired coming from Santa’s area. Santa’s elf has been shot. Stacie and her friends deal with helping the elf, notifying the police of an active shooter situation, and then try to help the detectives solve the crime.

Her relationship status is up in the air, the elf shooting has her wondering why others wouldn’t help the elf, her father is going on a cruise with his new wife, her brother is deployed, and life still goes on.

I enjoyed the story and the characters. I wished the book was a little longer. Already looking forward to the next episode.

Short but great mystery

Stacie and her friend are shopping at the mall when they hear shots fired. Stacie sees that Santa’s elf has been shot. She goes to help the girl until the first responders arrive. They notice a couple of suspicious men on scene. Stacie and her friends get involved in the investigation and it seems they now have a target on their backs too.

This is the fifth book in the series but my first. I had no problems with understanding the characters and their relationships. This was an interesting story and pulled me in from the beginning. It is a short story but does not lack any components of a good mystery. There were plenty of suspects and twists and turns to keep me guessing. I will definitely read more of this series in the future.

I listened to the audio version of the book. The narrator does a wonderful job with the characters and story telling. She has a pleasant voice that makes listening to the story enjoyable.

All thoughts and opinions are my own, and in no way have I been influenced by anyone.

Holiday Murder

Holidays, Hijinks, and Murder is Book 5 in A Stacie Maroni Mystery by Christa Nardi. Stacie is at the mall with a friend w hug an Santa's Elf is shot. This might not be the way to begin the holidays, but, it is a great way to begin a wonderful murder mystery. Stacy and Trina are up to finding the murderer even if the police want them out of their investigation. Naomi Rose-Mock gives an outstanding performance with her narration. Holidays, Hijinks and Murder is a great way to spend an afternoon.
