Cat's Review of Drama Christmas (11th Nicky and Noah mystery) by JOE COSENTINO @JoeCosen @TTCBooksandmore

It’s winter holiday time at Treemeadow College, and Theatre Professor Nicky Abbondanza, his husband Theatre Associate Professor Noah Oliver, their son Taavi, and best friends Martin and Ruben are donning their gay apparel in a musical version of Scrooge’s A Christmas Carol, entitled Call Me Carol! More than stockings are hung when hunky chorus members drop like snowflakes. Once again, our favorite thespians will need to use their drama skills to catch the killer and make the yuletide gay before their Christmas balls get cracked. You will be applauding and shouting Bravo for Joe Cosentino’s fast-paced, side-splittingly funny, edge-of-your-seat entertaining eleventh novel in this delightful series. Take your seats. The stage lights are coming up on an infamous miser, S&M savvy ghost, Victorian lovers of the past, present, and future, a not so Tiny Tim, and murder!

Cat gives this one 5 Meows with a 1 Purr heat index... 

Nicky is working on his 11 drama and where Nicky is murder seems to follow.

This year's production is A Christmas Carol is rewritten by Martin with department heads and students as actors and directors.

The story has many characters both old and new, the main plot putting on the show with a secondary plot of solving the 5 murders that are apt to happen.

This time I was so sure I was right. Since I’ve read the first 11 I knew some tricks. So I thought. I never could’ve been further from solving it. Lol and we have what I hope is a new character!

If you like a cozy mystery with lots of humor, interesting characters, twists, and turns you will love this series. This is book 11 and though you can read it on its own it is better to read in order
