A Marine’s Christmas Wedding

Holiday whodunits

The holidays, especially Christmas, have served as a backdrop for the romantic suspense genre for decades. While Christmas and criminals seem an unlikely combination, many writers have successfully blended the two to create fast-paced thrillers and mysteries that have you sitting on the edge of Santa’s lap: Silent Night by Mary Higgins Clark, Hercule Poirot’s Christmas by Agatha Christie, Hard Christmas by Barbara D’Amato.

Several of my romantic suspense stories feature mistletoe and mayhem. Which one is your favorite?

Mission: Impossible to Wed (The Impossible Mission Series, Book 5)

A Marine’s Christmas Wedding (The Grayce Walters Series, Book 5)

A Christmas Code (The Code Breakers Series, Book 2)

A Holiday Code for Love (The Code Breakers Series, Book 7)

A Code of Joy (The Code Breakers, Book 10)

For romantic suspense authors, the love, peace, joy and comfort of the holidays offer a sharp and vivid contrast to the terror, danger and peril of mysteries and thrillers. When everything you love most is at risk, it becomes that much more precious when saved by a clever hero and/or heroine.
