Have Yourself A Deadly Little Christmas: Year Round Christmas Mystery: 6

It''s the beginning of December in Rudolph, New York, America''s Christmas Town, and business is brisk at Mrs. Claus''s Treasures, a gift and decor shop owned by Merry Wilkinson. The local amateur dramatic society is intensely preparing a special musical production of A Christmas Carol. But it''s not a happy set, as rivalries between cast and crew threaten the production. Tensions come to a head when a member of the group is found dead shortly after a shopping excursion to Mrs. Claus''s Treasures. Was someone looking to cut out the competition? Everyone in the cast and crew is a potential suspect, including Aline, Merry''s mother, and Merry''s shop assistant Jackie O''Reilly, who was desperate for a starring role. It could be curtains for Christmas - and for Merry - unless the killer can be ferreted out of the wings.
