Sugarplums and Scandal
by Cait London, Mary Daheim, Dana Cameron, Suzanne Macpherson, Lori Avocato
And just in time comes this grand gift of seasonal mystery and romance from six of popular fiction's most supremely talented "Santas"—for 'tis the season for scandals, suspense, and all sorts of unexpected surprises! Enjoy Lori Avocato's tale (All I Want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth) of the sexy fraud investigator and the delinquent dentist, and Dana Cameron's suspenseful story (The Lords of Misrule) of a not-so-merry Christmas Eve at an English manor house. Savor Mary Daheim's (The Ghost of Christmas Passed) scrumptious gathering of lively loved ones and one ghostly guest, and Cait London's blood-chilling tale (Partners in Crime) of a menaced Christmas do-gooder. Suzanne Macpherson delights with a Yuletide fable (Holly Go Lightly) about a perky, persistent spirit and her haunted ex-fiancé. And take a walk with Kerrelyn Sparks (A Very Vampy Christmas) on the otherworldly side to discover how the undead celebrate the holidays.

Cait London's Bio
USA Today's bestselling Cait London is published in 28 countries, working on her 60th book and her 19th year as a published author, either as Cait London or as Cait Logan (both pseudonyms). In her national award-winning career and with millions of copies, she's written historicals, category/series, paranormal, and now romantic suspense for Avon. Currently, she has four ongoing series. As Lois Kleinsasser (a name editors didn't want for her books), she moved to the Midwest from the sand and sage of rural Washington State. Her novels reflect that small town western upbringing. In her former creative life, she is/was a wildlife/scenery artist, specializing in large canvas. "I love painting, but writing is where it's at for me now. It's just a different canvas," she says. Best known for her vividly written characters and plot twists, Lois/Cait loves to read, play with computers and photography, and admits to owning a runaway herb garden. She also loves to drive and has researched on location all of her novels, including the Oregon Trail and Northwest Indian/fur trader/gold trails into Canada. Most recently, she has researched vinyards and lighthouses in the Lake Michigan area. This trip resulted in two more suspense novels, including WITH HER LAST BREATH 7/03 and WHAT MEMORIES REMAIN 5/04.
A USA Today bestseller, Cait/Lois has received several national kudos and awards. However, she lists her top achievement as several years as a single mother of her three daughters (three is her lucky number), while she worked a full-time day job and wrote for two publishers.
In addition to writing her novels, Cait presents seminars on writing and speaking on other topics, maintains her extensive website, 2 reader enewsletters, 1 for booksellers/librarians/readers groups, an enewsletter for regional writers/librarians/booksellers, produces her own graphic designs for 4-color promotions, maintains a vast contact with booksellers and readers, and writes articles. She is a member of national professional novelist organizations.
Cait/Lois hopes you'll visit her website for a complete list of her books, contests, recipes, and writing tips. Her enewsletter is available by subscription through her website, or by writing [email protected]. She is currently promoting romantic suspense written as Cait London and other upcoming books, and writing/researching new projects.
