It’s beginning to look a lot like murder. Finding a severed hand at a client’s house might throw lesser decorators off their games. But Chloe Carstairs and her mother, Amanda, won’t let a little thing like murder keep them from decking the halls. With a body under the partridge’s pear tree and a dead Santa in a sleigh, they have to crack the case before the killer strikes again – this time much too close to home. Filled with laugh-out-loud humor, romance and a delightfully difficult mother-daughter relationship, this new series from Billie Thomas offers a fast-paced caper as these two southern ladies try to keep their very merry Christmas from turning into the Noel from hell.

A classic locked room mystery, this novel begins with Simeon Lee being found with his throat slit in his own bedroom. Poirot has to figure out how the murder occurred and find the killer before they strike again.

I don't think I am going to read any of these books even if they're on sale. I am not really a big fan of thriller books. And yay, they're even related to Christmas. Ahh no. I want a Christmas read that's fun and heartwarming. Nyehehehe.
