Corpus Christmas
(Sigrid Harald Series #6) A relic of Manhattan's Gilded Age, the venerable, art-filled Erich Breul House is hosting a grand Yuletide party. But while the staff merrily decks the halls with antique ornaments, somebody fatally bludgeons art historian Dr. Roger Shambley. Quickly summoned to the case is the erudite Lt. Sigrid Harald of the NYPD, who is familiar with the dead professor's caddish and ruthless reputation and his many enemies. Her investigation soon uncovers that shortly before his death the despised Shambley had discovered an astonishing artwork—one that would have made him world famous. Now in a complex mystery of countless suspects and secret motives, Sigrid must sort through all the holiday bustle...and unwrap a killer who threatens to make this white Christmas run red. |
