It’s the holiday season on Daybreak Island, and Maddie James is looking forward to the Christmas festivities. Word gets out that Donna Carey, the publisher of the island’s only daily newspaper, may be selling the business. Becky, Maddie's friend and local journalist, is appalled that her boss is entertaining the idea. Maddie is sympathetic, but she has her own problems, like getting pulled into the Christmas event committee, and solving the case of a cat breeder trying to sell designer cats as gifts on the island. Then Donna winds up dead. And Becky becomes the main suspect. Maddie is thrown into another murder investigation in order to save her best friend from a Christmas behind bars.
I absolutely love this cozy mystery, and I found a new series that I can devour. I love Maddie James and her family and all the side characters. The plot was very engrossing, and I kept on turning the pages long into the wee hours of the morning. I was surprised with who the culprit was in the end. Thanks to NetGalley and St Martin's Press for this advanced reader's copy. This review is my honest opinion.
