Publisher's Synopsis
This year, Christmas in Esther and Sophie's beach town is anything but jolly.
Despite enjoying the Parade of Lights, cutting fresh Christmas trees, and eating delicious treats, murder has darkened the Christmas spirit in Necanicum.
With all the strange goings on, Sophie and Esther take seasonal jobs at the newest business in town: a books and bakery shop. But when someone starts killing the competition at another bookstore, the girls know they must find answers before Santa comes to town.
Was it the bad boy baker with the wrench in the library? Or was it the new school principal with the Christmas cookies by the fire?
Make room for some old-fashioned traditions and sleuthing as Sophie and Esther race to solve the mystery before this Christmas becomes someone's last chapter.
