Book Overview

by Valerie Taylor (Author)

Second installment in the award-winning Venus Bixby Mystery series from Valerie Taylor, also author of What's Not Said: A Novel.

Thanksgiving weekend always marks the start of Christmas festivities in Chatham Crossing. But, this year, when the annual tree lighting ends in flames, this charming and usually joyful town finds little to celebrate.

After the town's long-time, beloved mayor, collapses and dies at the scene of the tree lighting, nearly a week passes before details as to what actually caused his heart attack begin to emerge.

Preoccupied with the recent opening of her kitty daycare service, Venus Bixby thinks twice before getting involved in the investigation. But once her popular cookie bakery is linked to the mayor's death, she has no choice.

As clues begin to surface, Venus grapples with the possibility that someone she cares about may be responsible for the mayor's death.

Will Venus's clever sleuthing be enough to save Christmas for this charming seaside town?

Includes cookie recipes and a playlist!

In the second installment of this cozy mystery with a romantic twist, Valerie Taylor brings back scrappy sleuth Venus Bixby and her mischief-maker twin sister. Switched at Death is as strikingly entertaining as A Whale of a Murder, with a holiday theme to enjoy all year long. Order Switched at Death today!
