‘Tis the Season Murder by Leslie Meier contains two Lucy Stone holiday mysteries. Christmas Carol Murder (Book Twenty) and New Year’s Eve Murder (Book Twelve) give us a look back at Lucy at different stages in her life. While I had read both books previously, it did not hinder my enjoyment. I had a good time reading about Lucy’s adventures. New Year’s Eve Murder has Lucy and Elizabeth heading to Manhattan for a winter makeover that Elizabeth won from Jolie magazine. There are some humorous situations in this story that had me giggling. Lucy was looking forward to spa treatments and instead receives harsh criticism from Jolie magazines editors. Her lobster watch and duck boots garnered quite a bit of attention. Christmas Carol Murder has Lucy taking to the stage in the local production of A Christmas Carol as Mrs. Cratchit. When Jacob Marlowe ends up dead, many of the town’s residents believe it is karma. Jacob and his partner, Ben Scribner at Downeast Mortgage have been raking in the dough with the foreclosure of properties (and then selling them off for a profit). Lucy has her work cut out for her if she is going to solve this crime. The suspect is longer than Eloise’s Christmas list (I like the movie version with Julie Andrews playing Nanny). I found both stories to be well-written and engaging. It amazes me at how far Lucy Stone has come since Mistletoe Murder. There is a preview of Invitation Only Murder at the end. If you are looking for two entertaining Christmas cozy mysteries, then check out ‘Tis the Season Murder. ‘Tis the Season Murder has murder, mayhem and merriment. ( )
