The holidays are supposed to be the most wonderful time of the year, but in Redwood Grove, murder is about to make Christmas anything but merry!

From bestselling cozy mystery author Ellie Alexander comes A Holiday Homicide, the fourth installment in the charming Secret Bookcase Mystery series.

Annie Murray is looking forward to celebrating Christmas at the Secret Bookcase, the beloved mystery bookstore where she works in the picturesque town of Redwood Grove.

With festive decorations, holiday traditions, and plenty of Christmas excitement, everything seems perfect for a wonderful holiday season.

But when a celebrity baker suddenly drops dead during a gingerbread-baking competition, the festivities take a deadly turn.

What should have been a delightful celebration of holiday baking becomes the scene of a shocking murder.

And Annie can't resist investigating.

As rumors spread throughout Redwood Grove, Annie discovers that the local baking community isn't nearly as sweet as it appears.

Behind the festive smiles and beautifully decorated gingerbread creations are bitter rivalries, long-buried secrets, and plenty of possible motives for murder.

With help from her loyal bookstore colleagues and Liam, the charming local pub owner who has captured her heart, Annie begins piecing together the clues.

But the closer she gets to discovering the killer's identity, the more dangerous her investigation becomes.

Can Annie uncover the truth before Christmas?

Or will this holiday mystery become her last?
