Christmas in October, why not?

What’s that under this reader’s Christmas tree? A stack of Milverton Mysteries! This tree is one of many John puts up around the house every year, saying he embraces Christmas early for the joy of it. And I say why not?!

What’s the latest book about?

Fright on Stage Right (A Milverton Mystery) by G. B. Ralph. Cover image and description/blurb. It’s opening night at the theatre and Addison Harper has front-row seats with Sergeant Jake Murphy. This might just be his perfect date. The variety show promises spooky Halloween fun, ghoulish drag queens, frightening musical numbers, and the scariest thing of all: audience participation. Of course, the unlucky victim dragged from the safety of his seat is a mortified Addison. In a production full of twists and turns, he has no idea what’s coming next but nobody could have anticipated witnessing a sudden, absolutely unscripted, and very real death. A dreadful accident? Or was it foul play? As the curtain falls before a horror-struck audience, Addison Harper finds himself once again in the spotlight at centre stage.
