Publisher Description
The first ever Christmas mystery in the beloved New York Times bestselling Bibliophile Mystery series!
San Francisco book-restoration expert Brooklyn Wainwright and her hunky security-expert husband, Derek Stone, face a locked-room murder mystery during the holidays in Scotland.
In the middle of a wonderful Christmas holiday in Dharma, Brooklyn and Derek receive a frantic phone call from their dear friend Claire in Loch Ness, Scotland. The laird of the castle, Cameron MacKinnon, has just proposed to her! They plan to be married on New Year’s Day, and they want Derek and Brooklyn to be their witnesses. And while they’re visiting, Claire hopes that Brooklyn will be able to solve a little mystery that’s occurred in the castle library—twelve very rare, very important books have gone missing.
Once in Scotland, Brooklyn starts working on the mystery of the missing books but is soon distracted by all of the thumping and bumping noises she’s been hearing in the middle of the night. You’d think the Ghost of Christmas Past had taken up residence. But when one of the guests is poisoned and another is killed by an arrow through the heart, Brooklyn and Derek know this is not the work of any ghost. Now they must race to find a killer and a book thief before another murder occurs and their friends’ bright and happy future turns dark and deadly.

Great
Another great read in this series.
The Twelve Books of Christmas
Another wonderful addition to the Bibliophile Mystery series. The Twelve Books of Christmas has missing books, cats, and a wonderful Scottish setting, it makes a great cozy Christmas read. I can’t wait for Brooklyn’s next adventure.
Another Mystery solved, murderers caught
I truly enjoy the Bibliophiles series. Good fun, some danger and great family involved. I do miss the love affair between Brooklyn and Derek, it’s so platonic that they are almost like brother and sister. And, this time a mystery wasn’t solved, the foreign bank account. Could have added another great zing to the story. I absolutely love Rebecca,best of the bunch. Look forward to another book.
