A holiday dinner. A hidden danger. A woman with everything at stake.
After a difficult year, Lauren Hughes wants nothing more than a peaceful holiday season—good friends, good food, and Chicago dressed in its sparkling best. When she joins her close friend, attorney and private investigator Quille C. Davis, for dinner and to ferret out financial crime she expects intrigue but mostly warmth and cheer. What she doesn’t expect is to face a far more sinister crime.
Drawn into a world of secrets, suspects, and slippery motives, Lauren soon realizes that someone is hiding far more than holiday stress. As winter storms close in and tensions rise, she must confront both the mystery unfolding around her and the unsettling echoes of her own past.
Told through Lauren’s eyes and set against the beautiful yet dangerous backdrop of Chicago in a snowstorm, this holiday-themed mystery novelette delivers the smart sleuthing, warm friendships, and emotional depth readers love in the Q.C. Davis Mystery series—along with a twist neither Lauren nor Quille sees coming.
Perfect for fans of smart female-led mysteries, holiday suspense, and character-driven storytelling.
