When juggling a Christmas parade, a rocky relationship, and snooping prove to be too much-after finding out the missing girl's grandfather is a mule for a LA money-laundering operation-Sarah realizes she may have bitten off more than she can chew. Ensuring this year's Christmas fair is the town's best one yet, Sarah must follow clues she cannot ignore... to once again sniff out a deliciously eerie scandal"--

Along the way, she meets Melody's brother-in-law, Jake, and Libby, the troubled young girl Melody hired on a few months prior. As they-along with Melody's trust dog, Fido-follow a deadly trail of crumbs around town, Sarah must trust her instincts like never before...if she's to ever sniff out the true murderer"--
