Premeditated Peppermint

An Amish chocolatier wants to know who fits the mold of murderer when a TV exec dies during a holiday special in this mystery by the Agatha Award-winner.

For her first Yuletide in the Amish community of Harvest, Ohio, former big-city chocolatier Bailey King is recreating a cherished holiday treat: peppermint combined with molten white chocolate. But her sugar high plummets when her former boyfriend walks into her candy shop Swissmen Sweets. New York celebrity chef Eric Sharp and his TV crew have arrived to film an authentic Amish Christmas. Bailey's not about to let Harvest be turned into a sound bite. But the camera crew catches more than they bargained for when their producer is strangled to death—and Eric is the prime suspect.

With Bailey's sheriff deputy boyfriend out to prove Eric's guilt, her bad-boy ex tries to sweet-talk her into helping him clear his name…and rekindle their romance. Now, between a surplus of suspects and the victim's own unsavory secrets, Bailey's up against a killer who isn't looking to bring joy to the world—or to Bailey—this deadly Noel.
