Description
Someone killed Santa...twice!
In Crimson Holiday...
Passed out after the Westbrook Department Store Christmas party, window designer Shelby Corbin wakens only to trip over Santa, the store's co-owner and Shelby's boss. Terrified that she will be blamed for the murder, she panics. CEO Rand McNabb sees a dark-haired woman wearing a crimson dress fleeing the scene and thinks he knows her identity. His romantic attentions both thrill her and frighten Shelby. Is the sexy CEO really helping her search for the truth about that fatal night, or does Rand have a deadlier motive for courting her?
In Crimson Nightmare...
After the last Westbrook Department Store Christmas party, Pippa McNabb's cheating husband was murdered wearing a Santa suit. A new year, a new Christmas party, a new dead Santa – this time, after having a bad reaction to an appetizer Pippa gives him, he lurches from the store out onto the street only to be run down by eight tiny reindeer. Pippa is suspect, but so is naturalist Sky Thornton, who was driving the sleigh. Sky seems intent on helping Pippa, but he seems to know too much about her. Is he really trying to clear her name, or is he trying to frame her for the murder?

As usual, Patrica Rosemoor writes great stories. I enjoyed how these two stories were back to back and shared some common interest. Great story, and a great mystery makes for a great evening of reading.

The first book is Christmas Holiday what happens when window designer Shelby Corbin is drugged at the Westbrook Department Store Christmas party and the main suspect is Santa The Santa who was the store co-owner and the man whose body she has just fallen over.

The second story is "Christmas Nightmare" this is the story of widow Pippa McNab the woman whose husband was murdered at the Westbrook Department Store Christmas party last year and it looks like history is repeating itself after Santa has a reaction to aa appetiser she serves him rushes into the street and his killed by reindeer drawing a sled. Soon Sky Thornton the driver of the sled is helping Pippa to solve the case but is that all that he is interested in You will have to read to see if they have a future together.
When I started reading this, I read the dedication of the author's memories of the Marshall Fields State Street Store. My husband talks about having been lucky enough to go every Christmas to the Walnut Room and the fond memories he has of this annual event. While I never went myself, Marshall Fields had always been an wonderful shopping experience. Their Christmas decorations were always magical.
This book incorporates those feelings into a sweet mystery involving a fictional store in downtown Chicago. Crimson Holiday and Crimson Nightmare the two stories showcased under Crimson Duet.
These are fun sweet mysteries centered around Christmas.
