Mistletoe, Murder, and Mayhem

Seven guests. One invitation nobody admits to sending. And one of them dead in his bed upstairs before the first pot of coffee.

A quiet inn, until it wasn't

The Boudreauxs were counting on the holidays. A full house through Christmas would carry the Mistletoe Inn into spring, and for one evening it looked like it might: snow on the porch rail, cider on the stove, seven guests signing the register.

By morning one of them was found dead in his bed upstairs, and Detective Chestnut was asking why nearly everyone in the parlor had arrived on the same mysterious invitation. Not one of them would say who sent it.

The arrest took days of careful investigation. Those days are the story.

About Sheila

Sheila Williamson is a Texas native living in McKinney, a mystery buff, and an unrepentant tea drinker. Mistletoe, Murder, and Mayhem began as a stage play she wrote and performed as a fundraiser in December 2024, and grew into a novel when the Mistletoe Inn refused to let her go.

Her first book, Two Calls: Blossoming Faith — Keeping Hope Alive , tells her family's story of addiction, faith, and the long road back.
