A Catered Christmas Cookie Exchange (A Mystery With Recipes) - Plot & Excerpts
Ten Westward Drive was a modified, white clapboard ranch, with green trim, arborvitae foundation plantings, and an attached garage that someone had added a second story to at some point. The house was completely unremarkable, and made even more so by the fact that it looked exactly the same as the ones on either side of it. Even the Christmas decorations were similiar. All three houses had white lights strung around the windows and the front door. Bernie couldn’t help thinking that Ten Westward Drive was one of those houses that went into your mind and out again without leaving a trace behind. For all intents and purposes, it was invisible. As she and Libby walked up to the doorway, Bernie heard voices coming from the television. The curtain wasn’t drawn, and Bernie could see the living room from where she was standing. It was like a stage set. The furnishings consisted of a white sofa, two beige armchairs, a glass coffee table, and a shelf full of what looked like knickknacks. A rerun of Law and Order was on the TV, although as far as Bernie could tell, Alma wasn’t in the living room.
