Cecily Sinclair Baxter’s Christmas becomes a working holiday when the man she hired to play Santa Claus is murdered in this Pennyfoot Hotel mystery.

To ring in the holiday season, Cecily Sinclair Baxter is hosting a party at the Pennyfoot Hotel for the children of Badgers End to meet Father Christmas. Unfortunately, the jolly old man fails to appear. Instead, his body is discovered—clearly a victim of foul play—and his helper has had a fatal fall.

The police believe the two men had a tragic rooftop tangle, but Cecily has her doubts. The murder weapon is still missing, and since no one has left the hotel since the crime, she’s making a list of suspects—and checking it twice…

Praise for Slay Bells

“Anytime a Pennyfoot Hotel Mystery is published is a time for rejoicing.”—Midwest Book Review

“A true holiday gem.”—Mystery Scene Magazine

“The author draws as much from Fawlty Towers as she does from Agatha Christie, crafting a charming…cozy delicately flavored with period details of pre-World War I rural England.”—Publishers Weekly

“A return visit to the Pennyfoot Hotel brings a great mystery for the holiday season…Cecily Sinclair Baxter is a delightful heroine…The secondary characters add great texture and richness to the setting. This book has it all: a great mystery, wonderful characters and a charming setting.”—RT Book Reviews
