Cyanide Night, Holy Night

The Brickstone Paranormal Cozy Mystery Series, Book 3

By E.K. Cozy

A lesbian historian reads the past — her pug sniffs out the truth.

A Christmas Eve murder.
A psychic historian snowed in with a killer.
An opinionated pug who won’t shut up about it.

Historian Olivia Corbyn expected elegance and eggnog when she agreed to document the opening of a century-old time capsule at the prestigious Hawthorne Estate on Christmas Eve. Instead, she’s snowed in with a houseful of suspects after the family patriarch is found poisoned.

Trapped by a blizzard in a mansion brimming with secrets, Olivia must rely on her keen intellect, unpredictable psychic flashes, and her companions — a hilarious talking pug named Maudine and her steadfast partner Vivian — to solve the case.

The deeper she digs, the more tangled the web becomes. The clues point to long-buried betrayals, stolen fortunes, and a suspicious death that might not have been an accident after all. As holiday cheer clashes with dark family secrets and a killer who may strike again, Olivia races to untangle the mystery before Christmas morning arrives.

A wickedly funny cozy mystery with a talking dog whose wit is as sharp as her bark, this paranormal Christmas tale puts a supernatural spin on the classic locked-room puzzle.

Perfect for fans of Victoria Gilbert and Bailey Cates, Cyanide Night, Holy Night can be enjoyed as a standalone or as part of the Brickstone Paranormal Cozy Mystery series — every mystery is self-contained, with recurring characters against a charming small-town backdrop.
