Crafts and Life

It’s Christmas in Edindale, Illinois, and family law attorney Keli Milanni is preparing to celebrate the Wiccan holiday Yuletide, a celebration of rebirth. But this Yuletide someone else is focused on dying . . .
 
After years of practicing in secret, Keli has come out as a Wiccan to her boyfriend, and she feels like this Yuletide she’s the one who’s being reborn. But the Solstice is the longest night of the year, and Keli is about to stumble on a mystery so dangerous, she’ll be lucky to make it to morning.
 
Paired with her unbearably stuffy colleague Crenshaw Davenport III, Keli goes undercover at a real estate company owned by mayoral candidate Edgar Harrison. An old friend of Keli’s boss, Harrison, is being blackmailed, and it’s up to her to find the culprit. But the morning after the company holiday party, Harrison is found dead underneath the hotel Christmas tree. The police rule the death an accident, but Keli knows better—and she’ll risk her own rebirth to nab a missing killer.

Another good episode in the life of Keli Milanni, she is trying to tie up as many legal loose ends as possible before heading to spend the holiday season with her parents, just as she thinks she is getting there her boss drops another job in her lap, and a strange job it is! Keli and her co-worker Crenshaw are going undercover at a company to try and discover who is blackmailing the head of the company. So far so good, except the man (Edgar Harrison) ends up dying at the end of the company Christmas party, now it appears it isn't blackmail but murder that Keli needs to sort out!
