A Mistletoe Murder (Holiday Shorts #3)

Brigid says: I read this entertaining and slightly gritty novella by a new-to-me author in a single sitting thanks to its quick pacing and tight prose. It features one of my favorite types of characters in Mikayla, a slick con artist trying to fly under the radar. But Mikayla’s annual Christmas Eve train trip goes awry when she meets recently divorced Ashton and they are both thrown into a shocking murder investigation. Think The Polar Express meets Murder on the Orient Express. Content warnings apply. (Open door.)
