Synopsis
A peaceful Christmas in Serenity Bay? Think again!
Chloe Walsh’s skills as location manager for the beautiful seaside village she calls home have come up trumps again, and Serenity Bay is now the setting for cosy crime drama The Montgomery Mysteries, starring amateur sleuth Dominic Montgomery and his crime-solving dog, Agatha.
But Chloe is in a race against time. Filming has to finish before the village Midwinter Festival but schedules are tight – and a mystery saboteur is intent on slowing things down even further. Not only is Chloe facing problems with the shoot, she also has some personal conundrums to solve – a diva actor has commandeered her flat, her mum is having a late mid-life crisis, plus she has no idea what to buy for her Christmas-obsessed boyfriend!
Can Chloe sort out her life and save Christmas for an entire village?
Sequel to Summer at Serenity Bay.

This is a very good story and I got really involved with the characters, even the annoying Maggie who keeps shoving her oar in. It did seem to improve too as the novel progressed – I was looking forward to finding out ‘whodunit’ both within the script and with the sabotage. (Though I had already decided what Andy’s Christmas present should be!) So I finished it in two sittings. I would have liked the saboteur to have received some kind of punishment!! How dare he do that to the dog??
This is a sequel but stands alone very well. Our heroine, Chloe,and her boyfriend Andy, are looking forward to their first Christmas together but before that a lot of things happen! Chloe has brought a TV production to their village and filming must finish before the village can celebrate. There are problems thrown up to disrupt filming and everyone must come together to ensure the production is a success. The story rolls along and is an intriguing mix of romance, Christmas and whodunit! I loved all the characters and especially Agatha! A warm hearted story you’ll enjoy and not just at Christmas.
