     If you've got a problem, Charlie Kingsley probably has a tea that’ll help make it right. 
    EXCEPT when it comes to love. She does NOT do love potions. 
    Not even for Courtney, her pregnant new client who showed up three weeks before Christmas seeking a love potion because her husband was cheating on her. 
    So, Courtney asked about poison, instead. 
    She said she was joking. That's what happens between wives and husbands. They get angry and talk about killing each other. They don't really mean it. 
    It seems to make sense ... until Courtney’s husband turns up dead on Christmas Eve. 
    He was poisoned, of course. 
    And who is the number one suspect? Courtney. Of course. 
    But did she actually do it? Or is she being set up? 
    It's up to Charlie to sort through all the twists and turns in a case that gets more complicated the deeper she digs. 
    Meet Charlie. Also known as “Aunt Charlie” from the award-winning Secrets of Redemption series. She's back, making teas and solving cases in this funny, twisty, cozy mystery series set in the 1990s in Redemption, Wisconsin.

As if the theft wasn't bad enough, a body is found on the rocks outside the lighthouse, believed to be murdered. Now, it's up to Addie to connect the clues, find stolen goods, and catch a killer—in order to usher in a Happy New Year . . .
