The Most Wonderful Crime of the Year

I absolutely loved Ally Carter's The Blonde Identity, so when I saw her name on the cover of The Most Wonderful Crime of the Year (#1,286) I knew I would have to read it.  Reader, I loved it!

Maggie Chase and Ethan Wyatt, two of Killhaven Publishers' best-selling authors, are given a mysterious invitation at the annual company Christmas party.  Maggie has no interest in attending whatever this is, but Ethan prods her into reluctantly agreeing when her editor tells her she does not want to miss this opportunity.  

It turns out that the "Duchess of Death", a legendary mystery writer, has invited the two of them to her stately mansion in the wilds of the English countryside for Christmas.  Maggie has been a fan for years, so she is thrilled to meet her idol.  The small house party is interrupted when Eleanor Ashley disappears from her own locked library, and it becomes evident that someone has been trying to kill her.  Can Maggie and Ethan follow the clues to solve the mystery?  Or will the perpetrator prevail?

Well, you know the answer to that one!  Absolutely delicious!
