Holiday Hooligans — Constance Barker

It's the holidays at the salon, and Savannah is tasked once again with solving the case, this time of a Grinch who's determined to ruin Christmas… for everyone

***This is a 52,000 word Novella*** It starts much like the old fairy tale… everyone asleep in their beds, while a grouchy old Scrooge steals all the decorations and presents. But this time, it's real. When the spirits of the townspeople are dampened by the loss of their holiday cheer, Savannah sets out with her beau, James Woodley, to find the thief and make him (or her!) bring back Christmas. But Savannah has bigger problems than a holiday thief. Pete, one of her stylists, is currently the lead for the Christmas play, as the original actor broke his leg while walking up Pete's steps. Did Pete sabotage the stairs in order to get the part? Even worse, Savannah's charge, Sarah, is turning seven on Christmas Day, and her parents are coming back to Knockemstiff. Are they taking her away from Savannah… forever? A cozy mystery full of romance, suspense, crafts and Christmas cheer, Holiday Hooligans is a humorous tale of friendship and parenthood. Pour a cup of eggnog and sit back to enjoy the third installment in Constance Barker's suspenseful, thrilling murder mystery series.
