About this listen
Temp Jobs Can Be Murder!
Scarlett Chase is loving her latest temp job at a local children’s charity during the most magical time of the year. The office is bustling as workers help to provide Christmas gifts for needy children. The charity workers are also preparing for their big fundraising gala, which will raise the money needed to run all of their programs for the upcoming year.
Scarlett can’t think of anything better than bringing Christmas joy to children, but when one of her clients turns out to be the ex-girlfriend of her boyfriend, Austin Howard, the job becomes a bit awkward. Scarlett struggles to be supportive and understanding as Austin grows more and more concerned about his ex and the difficult family situation she is experiencing.
Things go from bad to worse when Santa Claus is found murdered in the middle of the fundraising gala, ruining the evening and threatening the survival of the charity.
The police hone in on Austin’s ex-girlfriend as their number one suspect, but Scarlett isn’t sure they’ve found the right culprit. Her feelings about the woman are complicated, and she is tempted to let the police handle this mystery. But pleas from Austin and her insatiable curiosity won’t let her sit idly by without poking around in search of some answers.
Christmas is coming, and Scarlett won’t rest until she has solved the crime and saved the charity.
Murder—unlike her job—isn’t temporary.
Crisis at the Christmas Party is the sixth book in the fun and clever Temp Jobs Cozy Mystery Series.

The more she looks into the case the more she learns the victim wasn't liked by anybody and as the suspect list grows, Scarlett even has to start looking at her friends and staying unemployed becomes the least of her worries.
I like the narrator. She did a really good job of bringing the characters to life and giving them a voice.
