  Nothing puts a damper on the holiday spirit . . . 
   
   
   
  Quite like a murder. 
   
   
   
  It's holiday festival time in picturesque Blue Valley, Tennessee, which means there'll be plenty of fun, and an onslaught of tourists coming to town. This year, Paper Owl owner and amateur sleuth Alice Maguire is helping out with organizing the Hometown Holidays Festival. 
   
   
   
  The festival features a week chock full of activities, beginning with the Bowl Full of Jelly 5k Fun Run, and leading into the Mistletoe Market, the Winter Wonderland, and the annual Tinsel Theater's production of A Christmas Carol. 
   
   
   
  Main Street is decorated to the nines, and the rooftop garden that Alice shares with her fellow sleuthers is cozier than ever. Franny will be whipping up plenty of hot chocolate, and Alice's budding romance with Luke Evans is going smoothly. 
   
   
   
  Life is good in the quaint little town, and it's shaping up to be a perfectly wonderful holiday, but when a body is discovered at the 5K, it'll be up to Alice, Owen, and Franny to make sure that Blue Valley's Hometown Holidays Festival gets back on track—and that means they'll have to catch a murderer. 
   
   
   
  Will they catch the killer and save the festival?

  She should know better.  
  After an altercation with a customer leads to a dead body in Maggie’s bathtub, she realizes there’s more to the department store case than missing cash. Can she catch the killer before the holidays? Or will the festive season end in an explosion of tinsel and turmoil?

An American trained in the ways of the samurai, Sand fears for the safety of Toki Jakata, the granddaughter of his late samurai master and the only woman he has ever loved.
