Northern England, 1926: Surprised by her eager acceptance of Redvers proposal, Jane is ready to spend the festive season deciphering the mysterious man she agreed to marry, while surviving scrutiny from the icy Dibble clan at their snow-dusted manor. But all attention shifts to the announcement of upcoming nuptials between the humorless Evelyn Hesse and the man who will become Janes father-in-law. One fact is clearEvelyn shouldnt be trusted. Not as rumors swirl about the deaths of her other husbands. Not after a man is murdered at a party before Christmas Day. With one wedding approaching and their own in peril, Jane and Redvers must dash to unravel dark secrets that could ruin their first holiday together . . . or cost another person their life.

Murder Under the Mistletoe (Jane Wunderly 4.5), by Erica Ruth Neubauer (2023)
⭐️⭐️⭐️

Premise: Amateur detective Jane and her mysterious fiancé arrive at his father‘s manor to find him engaged to a woman notorious for outliving her husbands.

Review: This is the 2nd time I allowed a glowing review to sway me to read this series; it will be the last. But the mystery itself works very well, and if that‘s what is important to you, then this works ⬇️

Mattsbookaday But the writing is just atrocious to me, from bland dialog played off as wit, obvious conclusions played off as insightful, to outright contradictions. Not for me. But again, the mystery works

Bookish Pair: For similar vibes but done well, Hercule Poirot‘s Christmas, by Agatha Christie (1938)

Happy New Year!! I‘ve finished reading my first book of 2024! Murder Under the Mistletoe is book 4.5 in the Jane Wunderly mysteries. Jane visits Redvers‘ family for the first time during the holidays. This series seems to get better with every book, and I‘m looking forward to the next one coming out later this year!
