Mystery fans will be thrilled to learn that Patrice Greenwood’s next Wisteria Tearoom novel is due to be released on November 14. This sixth excursion to the Santa Fe series takes the reader through the Christmas holiday season with traditional celebrations, visits to local restaurants, cookie-baking frenzy, and of course, a murder or two. As always, the novel includes a tasty recipe from the author’s own collection.
Yuletide in Santa Fe: biscochitos, farolitos, Las Posadas, music…and murder.
Ellen Rosings does not have time for murder investigations. It’s December, and the Wisteria Tearoom is awash in shoppers, cookies, and groups of strange women brought to tea by the eccentric Bird Woman.
Alas, Ellen must cope with murder anyway. One of her high school classmates is stabbed to death, and she and her best friend Gina can’t resist the puzzle. Handsome Tony Aragón is on the case, and Ellen is only too happy to assist, but when a second classmate of Ellen’s turns up dead, Tony’s protective instinct kicks in. Much as Ellen agrees, she can’t stay in a cocoon—she’s got a business to run.
Is the fact that the victim has recently been to the tearoom merely a coincidence? Could Tony’s gratifying concern for Ellen’s safety inspire him to become her personal bodyguard? And what on earth should she get him for Christmas?

After a disastrous Halloween party at the Wisteria Tearoom, Ellen Rosings seeks to draw some understanding out of the chaos.
While trying to support her grieving Goth office manager, Ellen ponders the mysterious flashes of light she saw in another part of Santa Fe, wondering if they are related to Captain Dusenberry, the tearoom’s resident ghost. She asks for help from the local spirit-tour guide, Willow Lane, who takes curiosity about the captain’s unsolved murder to a new level, where Ellen finds herself exploring the very meaning of spirit.
Will a séance in the tearoom finally provide the answers to her questions?
This is a novella, a short companion story to the Wisteria Tearoom Mysteries series. It is recommended that you read A Masquerade of Muertos (book 5) before reading this story.
