Synopsis: Previously published in the collection Egg Nog Murder.&‘Twas the week before Christmas, and Julia Snowden&’s escape from New York has just hit a snag. Fresh off accidentally poisoning half her colleagues with her &“Killer Eggnog,&” Julia&’s would-be subletter, Imogen Geinkes, is now jobless and homeless—leading Julia to invite the young woman home for the holidays in Maine. But when they unload the rental truck in Busman&’s Harbor, they find something that wasn&’t on anyone&’s packing list: the body of Imogen&’s former boyfriend. Suddenly, the wordplay in Imogen&’s name—&“I&’m a jinx&”—isn&’t so adorable. But for all the calamities that follow in Imogen&’s wake, Julia&’s certain she&’s no killer. As Julia digs into the case, the appearance of the ex&’s brother—his identical twin—doubles the confusion. Has Imogene been double-crossed by an evil twin? Was the eggnog &“accident&” no accident at all? If Julia doesn&’t unwrap the murderer&’s true identity soon, one of the twelve days of Christmas could be her last . . .Praise for Steamed Open &“Sure to appeal to readers who treasure the Maine coast, Ross&’s latest continues the lives and minor dramas of her fictionalized version of Boothbay Harbor with amiable characters.&” —Kirkus Reviews
