Murder wasn't on the checklist.

Sam Prescott's organizational skills are legendary in Sunset Ridge. Her foolproof system for the Historic Holiday Home Tour covers every detail: five historic homes, three nights of tours, zero room for error.

Then the owner of the tour's showcase Victorian mansion is found dead on opening night, surrounded by Christmas decorations and shattered glass. Someone used Sam's own meticulously documented access system to commit murder.

Now this amateur sleuth must solve a small-town mystery where everyone had access, no one has an alibi, and the killer understood her organizational methods better than she thought possible.

This holiday season, Sam's learning that even the best-laid plans can't prevent murder—but they might just catch a killer.
