The Year-Round Christmas Mysteries center on Merry Wilkinson, who owns a year-round Christmas shop called Mrs. Claus’s Treasures in the small town of Rudolph, New York. The town takes its Christmas theme seriously, and Merry keeps stumbling into murder investigations among the tinsel and holiday decorations. The first book, Rest Ye Murdered Gentlemen, came out in 2015.
The series pairs holiday cheer with whodunit plotting. Each novel takes place around a seasonal event in Rudolph, giving the books a festive atmosphere even when the subject matter is deadly. Vicki Delany balances humor, small-town dynamics, and fair-play mystery clues throughout the series.
