Mrs. Claus and the Evil Elves

About the book

Jessica Fletcher meets Tim Burton in this quirky and clever cozy mystery series by Liz Ireland

April Claus has come to adore her new home in the North Pole as much as she loves her husband, Nick - aka Santa Claus. However, even in a town dedicated to Christmas, trouble can still arise . . .

April Claus is about to receive an early present for her second year living in Santaland. Her close friend, Claire, is coming to visit from Oregon and April is excited to showcase her festive country in all its cozy, magical glory. But when the annual ice sculpture competition is disrupted by a rogue drone-deer, it's just the start of a string of un-festive incidents . . .

The inventor elf Blinky Brightlow's drone-deer aren't exactly welcomed by the real reindeer who are currently on strike. Nick is worried that without the usual reindeer games, they might not be fit enough to pull his sleigh by Christmas. With Blinky missing and his girlfriend, Juniper, under suspicion, and with rebellious reindeer and cunning elves causing chaos, Santaland seems to have gone mad with festive frenzy. Throw in a murder, and suddenly April finds herself not only trying to clear Juniper's name, but also fighting to save herself from a chilling fate . . .
