Christmastime in the small town of Pine Hills, Ohio;  and a shop owner is discovered stabbed to death.
Simple but entertaining seasonal cozy mystery, with a fairly large cast of characters.   Includes some bizarre denizens with extreme attitudes on the "best" way to observe the holiday.

The main part of the book was very enjoyable and I devoured it in a couple hours. However, the reveal was very short and somewhat anticlimactic to me. But I still enjoyed it immensely!
