A novel by

 
 
A sassy innkeeper, a judgmental orange cat, and a town full of suspects.

I probably should have called Detective Gable the moment my guest checked in clutching a vintage candy tin like it held nuclear launch codes.

But I run a Christmas inn. People show up with weird stuff all the time. A battered peppermint tin barely cracked my top ten that week.

Then I find him dead.

The tin is gone. And suddenly everyone at my breakfast table is lying about something.
