YULE LOG MURDER
Christmas Mystery Anthology
by Leslie Meier, Lee Hollis, and Barbara Ross
YULE LOG MURDER by LESLIE MEIER
Lucy Stone is thrilled to be cast as an extra in a festive period film—until the set becomes a murder scene decorated in blood and buttercream icing. Returning to her role as sleuth, Lucy dashes to restore peace to Tinker’s Cove, unwrap a cold-hearted criminal’s MO, and reveal how one ornate Yule log cake could possibly cause so much drama.
DEATH BY YULE LOG by LEE HOLLIS
Hayley Powell’s holidays aren’t off to a very merry start. Not only has her daughter brought Conner—an infuriatingly perfect new beau—home to Bar Harbor, but a local troublemaker has been found dead with traces of her signature Yule log cake on his body. As Conner becomes the prime murder suspect, Hayley must put aside her mixed feelings to identify the real killjoy.
LOGGED ON by BARBARA ROSS
Realizing she can’t make a decent Bûche de Noël to save her life, Julia Snowden enlists the help of her eccentric neighbor, Mrs. St. Onge, in hopes of mastering the dessert for Christmas. With everyone in the old woman’s circle missing or deceased, however, it’s up to Julia to stop the deadly tidings before she’s the next Busman’s Harbor resident to meet a not-so-jolly fate.
Kick back with something sweet and indulge in three bite-sized Yuletide tales too good to resist!

MY REVIEW
Another
fabulous Christmas anthology from wonderful cozy mystery authors Leslie Meier,
Lee Hollis, and Barbara Ross.
I
was going to review each story in this book separately, and I do have a
favorite of the three, but the overall anthology was so good, I have decided to
give my thought on the overall volume. Meier, Hollis, and Ross have once again
given readers a Christmas treat with, YULE LOG MURDER.
I
read this holiday delight over the course of two days. I hated putting it down!
Each story in this anthology, YULE LOG MURDER, DEATH BY YULE LOG, and LOGGED ON,
is a cleverly written mystery, packed with more twists and turns than you’ll
find on a candy cane. Each author penned their respective tale with intrigue,
fun, and the Christmas spirit. Oh, and recipes!
YULE LOG MURDER is the prefect present under any
reader’s tree!
