  As bookstore owner Addie Greyborne shares the loving lesson of The Gift of the Magi, the spirit of the season falls prey to a thief and a killer . . . 
   
   
   
  There's no place like the seaside Massachusetts town of Greyborne Harbor for the holidays, and there's no better feeling for Addie than donating to the lighthouse museum's Twelve Days of Christmas charity fundraiser. Of the dozen books she'll be offering as prizes from her Beyond the Page Books and Curios shop, the most special volume is a first edition of The Gift of the Magi imported from England—signed by O. Henry! Addie receives an unexpected Christmas bonus when the book is hand delivered by visiting Detective Inspector Noah Parker, whom she met in England, and has been daydreaming about ever since. 
   
   
   
  But on the night Addie delivers the book to the museum, someone posing as one of Santa's Little Helpers swipes it—and the rest of the charity gifts. 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 . . .

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  
  The scream pierced through the Romanian night like a blade through silk, sharp and final. From his perch high in the ancient oak that overlooked the village of Brașov, Dimitri Moldovan's pale eyes tracked the source of the sound. Another victim claimed by the darkness that had plagued these mountains for centuries—the same darkness that coursed through his own cursed veins. 
  He dropped silently to the forest floor, his boots making no sound against the moss-covered earth. The supernatural grace that marked him as something other than human had become second nature over the past three hundred years. Three centuries of hunting, of feeding, of existing in the space between life and death. 
  The village bells began their mournful toll, signaling another death, another family torn apart by the monster that haunted their nightmares. If only they knew their true predator stood among the ancient trees, close enough to hear their prayers and taste their fear on the wind. 
  Dimitri had grown weary of the hunt long ago, but hunger was not a choice—it was survival. He had learned to be selective, taking only those whose absence would cause the least pain. The corrupt merchant who cheated widows. The violent drunk who terrorized his wife. The cruel landlord who evicted families into the bitter cold. In his twisted sense of honor, he had become both monster and judge, delivering a justice as dark as his nature.
