Leona’s Christmas cookies are leaving a trail of cookie crumbs that lead anywhere but to a happy holiday.
As soon as Annie and Jason return from a romantic getaway, a Santa-sized sack of problems lands on their doorstep. Jason might be able to pretend it doesn’t exist and just enjoy the upcoming holiday parties, but Annie has to help keep Aunt Leona out of trouble. Again.
Running only on caffeine, the women get ready for the Black Cat Café’s Christmas extravaganza. A last minute change to who will come as Santa Claus threatens to bring the whole event down. But quick thinking and a willing volunteer save the day.
Until that willing volunteer imbibes one drink too many. But that’s the least of the problems that keep piling up faster than the snowflakes of a Nor’easter.
A body, poisonous berries, and competition from a cutthroat competitor threaten to end the Black Cat Café once and for all. Annie tries to sift through the half-baked information to uncover the real motive—and killer—before it’s too late.
Another great episode in the life of Annie Fisher (sorry now Annie Hunter!), Catfish Cove and The Black Cat Cafe, Annie and Jason are starting to regret having arrived home as Annie's Aunt Leona is planning on a pre-Christmas event to die for, unfortunately the stand in Santa takes that literally! It also turns out there are plenty of people who wished him ill, from the various women he groped (on a regular basis), through his wife and various others.
Oh and add in the fact that a rival bakery is trying to sabotage Leona's business and it looks as though a lot of people will be on the naughty list this year, but then it gets even more serious when Annie is nearly run down, saved by a local young man with learning difficulties – here's hoping Annie and the police can sort it all out so a Merry Christmas can be had by all.
