Christmas cheer is trending in Central Shores… until an arsonist sets the season ablaze.

For true crime influencer Coco Cline, the holidays usually mean peppermint lattes, picture-perfect décor, and plenty of fun with the Sleuth Squad. But when a string of suspicious fires ends with a dead body, Coco’s merry mood goes up in smoke.

Coco may not have known the victim, but she knows her town, and she refuses to let fear snuff out the festive joy Central Shores waits for all year. With Chief McInnis’ patience for her “helpful hints” running thinner than tinsel, she’ll need all the backup she can get from her devoted crew: Charlotte, Jasper, and Hudson. Between Christmas-shopping stakeouts, blizzard blunders, and digital sleuthing that only a social-media maven could pull off, Coco must stay one step ahead of a killer determined to delete the holiday spirit for good.

In a town where secrets burn brighter than Christmas lights, Coco and her Sleuth Squad will have to sleigh this case before someone else gets scorched.
