“Everything you could want in a Christmassy novella and more!… This cozy mystery will bring a smile to your face and is perfect for a quick read to get you in that holiday spirit!”
–Wifetime of Happiness

Albany’s the perfect image of a winter wonderland, and Sean and Sara’s friend Jimmy is going to be Santa Claus for the upcoming Christmas parade. The trees and decorations have been selected and the gifts have been purchased. The season has truly cast its magical spell–until Sean and Sara’s neighbors die in a horrible house fire.

While the fire department ruled holiday-related hazards as the cause, Sara suspects there’s more to it. Her determination to find the truth has her and Sean toeing the line between what’s legal and what’s not.

As they sort out fact from fiction, the McKinleys make the final decision about whether or not they should open a private investigation firm.

“I keep saying that certain books are my favorite in the series, and it’s true…these books keep getting better and better.”
–Brooke Blogs

“Everything you could want in a Christmassy novella and more! The opening sentence sets the scene for comfort (and joy!) by entering in a wintery wonderland of falling snow and heading out to pick up a Christmas tree… Sean and Sara are very likable… This story kept my interest throughout with the little twists. I loved the humor with the blinking nose and hoofs, the chase at the parade and the little jokes between Sean and Sara… This cozy mystery will bring a smile to your face and is perfect for a quick read to get you in that holiday spirit! I have not read any of the McKinley Series novellas before, but plan to do so! I’d like to know the back-story of Sara’s adoption, their police work etc. Carolyn Arnold will be an author for my list for sure!!”
–Wifetime of Happiness

“Carolyn Arnold is one author who has changed my mind about cozies!  I absolutely loved this story!… Even though a serious subject, this was a fun romp… With chapters named “Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer” and “Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer” and “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen,” you’ll happily sing or hum your way through this short story.”
–Linda Strong Book Reviews
