All dressed up for the holidays, Clear Creek looks like it’s right out of a storybook. But the decorations aren’t just for fun. The tiny Rocky Mountain town is hosting a Christmas Festival sure to be used as a pattern for years.

While Jemma is busy with the Cozy Tree — a place visitors can buy hand-knitted hats and scarves to donate to people in need — Granny is busy taking bets on which day of the event Jemma will find a body. But to everyone’s surprise, this time Granny’s the one who makes the discovery!

Choosing to put her relationship with Brandon first, Jemma agrees to steer clear of the investigation. But Granny’s determination to solve the crime lands Jemma the impossible job of keeping the spunky old lady out of trouble, and breaking and entering is just the beginning of their adventure.

When the Cozy Tree is vandalized, it becomes obvious the pair is making someone nervous. Can Jemma and Granny knit up the investigation before Santa climbs in his sleigh?

Enjoy this peek inside:

“I’m getting really tired of people dragging me around,” I muttered.

“You’re getting tired — You’re —” Brandon let go of me as if my touch burned. “There’s a body over there, Jemma, and while there’s nothing obvious like a slit throat, the fact that it was shoved under the tree is a pretty good indication his death wasn’t natural.

“I turn my back for two minutes and you disappear. Gone. And you don’t come back. You were gone for a long time, and couldn’t be bothered to reply to my text to tell me you’re okay.”

“I’m sorry. I was dealing with the Cozy Tree, and my mother, and Anthony, and —”

“The guy your mother thinks is better suited to you?”

I nodded, unsure what to say.

His jaw tightened. “So I’ve been here worrying the killer went after you because you can’t keep yourself out of trouble, and you’re off — what, video chatting?”

Oh boy. This was not going the direction I wanted it to. “We can talk about it later.”

Brandon shoved his hands in his coat pockets and glanced over his shoulder to our rapt audience.

I waved and they all pretended they weren’t watching.

“I feel like we keep having the same fight over and over.” Brandon’s face hid whatever he was feeling. “Every time a body turns up, we do this dance where I tell you I’m worried and ask you to be careful, and you go right ahead and do whatever you want.”

I reached for him, but he stepped back.

Indecision flitted across his face before Brandon carefully hid it away. “Maybe it’s time we think about what we want in the long run.”

Some of the giant snowflakes must have landed in my eyes — they were full of moisture. “Are you breaking up with me over that guy’s dead body?”
