Publisher Description

Cabot Cove's crime-solving novelist Jessica Fletcher goes to New York just prior to Christmas, where a sidewalk Santa leads her into another mystery, in this installment of the USA Today bestselling series.

Promoting her latest books brings bestselling mystery writer Jessica Fletcher to New York for Christmas. Her schedule includes book signings, chat-show appearances, department store shopping, and—murder. But it all begins with a sidewalk Santa staring at Jessica with fear and recognition.

“Maintaining the charming fiction that Jessica Fletcher is a real person, Bain offers a first-person tale set primarily in New York City…No doubt Beth Porter was selected as the reader because she can, and does, sound just like Angela Lansbury. When various walk-ons speak, she changes her accent and intonations satisfactorily for purposes of character delineation…[and] Jessica comes across in all her didactic glory.”

Quotes

  • “Characters are interesting and well developed…While a few of Beth Porter’s New York accents are overdone, most are believable, and her Maine accents are convincing as she maintains the integrity of the characters through her presentation of their vocal personalities. There’s lots of New York atmosphere, too. A light, enjoyable mystery.”
