Fatal Fruitcake (A Callahan Garrity Short Story)

Atlanta cleaning lady/private detective Callahan Garrity, the protagonist of the author's eight critically acclaimed mysteries, returns from a long hiatus in this short story to track down the source of a killer fruitcake--and in the process discovers that some forms of Christmas spirit really can be lethal. 

Also included with this short story is Mary Kay Andrews' personal recipe for a not-so-fatal fruitcake.
