"Cecily Sinclair Baxter and her husband, Hugh, haven't been back to Badger's End in two years - not since they sold the Pennyfoot Hotel and the new owner turned it into a country club. But when Cecily receives a letter asking her to manage the hotel-turned-country-club during the Christmas season, she's delighted to accept. Hugh, however, is not quite so enthusiastic - especially when he discovers that the previous manager met a mysterious end." "Suspicious circumstances or not, Cecily can't resist the chance for a Christmas reunion at the beloved Pennyfoot. But when a chief housemaid goes missing, soon followed by one of London's most renowned barristers, she realizes that she may be on holiday - but death isn't."--BOOK JACKET.
