Bestselling author Rita Mae Brown and her feline partner, Sneaky Pie Brown, ring in the season with their first-ever Christmas-themed mystery. In Santa Clawed, Mary Minor “Harry” Haristeen, sleuthing cats Mrs. Murphy and Pewter and corgi Tucker must save the holiday from a killjoy who’s decking their town…with murder.
As Harry well knows, few places are cozier at Christmas than Crozet, Virginia. Snowflakes drifting down, carolers in the streets—it's picture-perfect, until Harry and her husband, Fair, find the tree they’ve chosen decorated with a corpse.
The dead man was Harry’s old high school friend, Christopher Hewitt. Christopher was working with the Brothers of Love, a semimonastic organization whose members run the tree farm. Like all the monks, Christopher joined the monastery to atone for mistakes he made in the secular world: in his case, insider trading.
At first, everyone assumes the monk’s death has to do with his past crimes, but as prominent men in town are murdered the same way—their throats slit and an antique coin left in their mouths—Harry must find the connection. And if she and her four-legged friends aren’t very good, and very careful, this Christmas could be their last.
