With Christmas only weeks away, Jaycee and Jax are gearing up for the holiday rush in Traveler's Bay. When Jaycee stumbles over the body of the most hated woman in town, Ginger Sager, there's no lack of suspects. Now Jaycee must juggle her job at the bookstore/bar while figuring out who might have killed Ginger, discover author Andrew TIpton's big secret he is keeping from everyone, and train a new bulldog pup to sleuth...all while decorating for Christmas, brushing up on her belly dancing, and staying one step ahead of her fiance, Detective Mike Connors. It's a lot for a girl to do on her own, good thing she has plenty of sidekicks who are willing to help her out! But when things take a turn for the worse, can Jaycee keep her wits about her and soldier on? Or will this Christmas go down as the worst in history?
