Of course, a young woman in Norway during the late nineteenth century can be a successful amateur sleuth, and goodness knows, Cornelia’s days are always more exciting when she can devote her time to resolving a local mystery.
Each morning, Cornelia reads the newspaper, looking for a conundrum
to solve. Searching for clues—and then chronicling her discoveries—thrills her.
She certainly finds those activities more entertaining than taking her
grandmother’s advice and attending one Christmas ball after another in search
of a husband.
But chaos and danger turn Cornelia’s quiet days upside down when
her attempt to find information about the owner of a nearby abandoned cottage
takes her into dangerous territory. As winter winds rattle the windows and
swirl snowdrifts against the doors, she faces off with a ghost, gets in trouble
with the police, and finds herself staring down danger without thinking of the
consequences. In the middle of it all, she meets Simon and is captivated by his
charm, good looks, and personality.
Meanwhile, a real killer is after her, and he won’t stop until he
gets information she doesn’t have! Christmas, with all its cheery festivities,
hygge, and family traditions, has never been more threatened. Cornelia must
call on all her investigative skills, not only to stop the ruination of her
family’s holiday, but also to make certain Simon and his aunt keep what belongs
to them. And maybe, just maybe, the amateur sleuth will discover the meaning of
true love.
Set in a fictitious town in Norway in
1891, this cozy historical mystery is perfect for those who enjoy curious and
determined women sleuths, clean and wholesome romance, and the discovery of
buried secrets in an abandoned house.
