A Christmas crime shocks the merchants of a quaint shopping district in this latest installment of the New York Times best-selling Victoria Square series.

It's Christmastime, but not everyone is jolly - especially not Vonne Barnett. Her dead body has been found in Victoria Square. Katie Bonner, the manager of Artisan's Alley, happens to be at the tea shop Vonne's mother, Francine, owns when the news is delivered.

Vonne left a trail of men behind her so the suspects are many - but the clues are few. A broken teacup leads Katie to one of the suspects, but before she can investigate, she's attacked. Katie may be closing in on a murderer, but time is ticking because the murderer is definitely closing in on her.

This one was my favorite by far. The plot was so well thought out that I didn't have a clue who the murderer was. The relationship between Katie & her former mother-in-law was touching. I'm excited to see what new adventures brew with Tealicious.

Delicious

I really enjoyed Yule Be Dead. The plot is well developed and the characters are engaging and believable. There are several different subplots along with the main murder mystery. The story has several twists and turns and kept me interested to the very end.

I've enjoyed the series. But, this has been the best one thus far! I can't wait for the next book to see the lives of the characters continue to develop.

Lorraine Bartlett has written another great addition in her Victoria Square Mystery Series. It has all the characters we’ve grown to know and love. I highly recommend this book/audiobook to cozy mystery fans.

Again---Katie Bonner, finds herself in the middle of it all. A visitor, from the past, stirs up old feelings. A unexpected death to be solved. A new business opportunity falls into Katie's hands. And the best thing is that this all takes us to a new plateau on the journey in this series.

I hope book 6 does not take two years---we need more.

I originally had a hard time getting into the first book, but each book has gotten better and better. Can’t wait for more books in this series. Was on the edge of my seat figuring out who Katie was going to end up with, but I guess we will see. I was very surprised at the culprit in the murder and one of the first times I really did not know who it was until the very end. I usually have some inkling, so this book definitely held me fast in anticipation.

The best yet in this series!

While I have enjoyed these the stories in this series, it has become somewhat frustrating since the heroine has in no way solved the cases. She comes across as a busybody who jumps to conclusion with no real facts to support the suppositions. She accuses individuals who are in no way guilty and goes around asking others what they think about those individuals spreading gossip and rumors, however, in real life, this could devastate a person’s reputation. At the same time, the author periodically portrays her as scatterbrained. I’m not particularly fond of a heroine who isn’t one.

Cute and cozy…
