Murder at the Christmas Cookie Bakeoff

A Beacon Bakeshop Mystery, Book 2

By: Darci Hannah

Narrated by: Amy Melissa Bentley

Tucked away inside an old lighthouse in Beacon Harbor, Michigan, bakeshop cafe owner Lindsey Bakewell is ready to make her first Christmas in town shine bright. But her merry plans crumble fast when murder appears under the mistletoe....

With the spirit of the holidays wafting through the Beacon Bakeshop, Lindsey thinks she has the recipe for the sweetest Christmas ever - winning the town-wide cookie bake-off. Low on staff and bombarded by visits from family, Lindsey can barely meet demands at work, let alone summon the confidence to face fierce competition....

Self-appointed Christmas know-it-all Felicity Stewart is determined to take the top spot in the bake-off, and she's not afraid to dump a little coal in everyone's stocking to do it. Just as the competition heats up, everything falls apart when the judge is found dead-and covered in crumbs from Lindsey's signature cookie!

Solving a murder was never on Lindsey's wish list. But with her reputation on the line during the happiest time of the year, she'll need to bring her best talents to the table in order to sift out the true Christmas Cookie culprit.

It's a feel good read.

Even though, a murder has occurred. The book reminds us of the wonder of Christmas and we all need that in this world.

Charming series

Murder of the Christmas Cookies Bake-off

Delightful. I want more. I have read 4 . When will we see more.
Love the reader, too.

Great story and excellent audio actress.

This cozy mystery has lots of suspects that keep you guessing. The sarcastic best friend added humor. I enjoyed the development of the family and friends characters. I felt like I knew them by the end of the story. There’s mystery, family, friends and a bit of romance. The different voices of the characters flowed seamlessly making it easy to forget it was one very talented artist portraying them. I appreciate that - and the reason I decline listening to AI audios.
