Description:

Christmas in Haven Harbor, Maine, means family, trouble, and murder . . .

This Yuletide season, there's no time for Angie Curtis and Patrick West to linger under the mistletoe. Patrick's being needled by his mother--movie star Skye West--to set the stage for a perfect white Christmas as she brings her costar, screenwriters, and director home for the holidays. With his mother's long list of wishes, Patrick's becoming unraveled. To help, the Mainely Needlepointers offer to decorate Skye's Victorian mansion and create needlepoint pillows as gifts for the guests.

But not long after the celebrity celebrants invade Haven Harbor, an unscripted tragedy occurs. Then some questionable Christmas cookies make Patrick sick. Before Santa arrives at the town pier on a lobster boat, Angie and the Needlepointers need to trim down the naughty list, catch a cold-hearted killer, and wrap up the case . . .

My Thoughts:

Christmas is hitting Haven Harbor and the Mainely Needlepointers are helping Patrick West in setting up a perfect Maine Christmas for his mother Skye and her co-workers.  But someone has murder on their mind when one of the guests winds up dead, and Patrick ends up poisoned as well.  Someone is doing a good job of pointing the finger at Angie!  Whose the Grinch this year and will Angie figure it out in time?

 It's such an adventure to go back to Haven Harbor and see what everyone is up to and this book didn't disappoint.  The group had their ups and downs but that happens with any friends. I have loved this series since the first book and it grows every time I get a copy to read.  This one was full of holidays and good friends celebrating while also trying to figure out who is trying to do in Patrick and a guest of Skye's!   I don't want to spoil the ending but if you haven't read these books you are truly missing out!
