"Three French hens, two elves, and one Santa Claus make for merry mayhem for Charlie Kingsley and the gang.
When Charlie and Pat see an injured Santa on the side of the road in the middle of a snowstorm, of course they had to stop and take him to the hospital.
They assumed that would be the end of their good Samaritan duties, until a dead elf is discovered in the same area where they picked up Santa … and Santa has no memory of what happened.
With Santa being the number one suspect, Charlie and Pat race to discover what really happened and keep Christmas from being cancelled.

"Unfortunately for Ike Krane, his parents had a wicked sense of humor.
So, early on, he decided to embrace his challenges rather than run from them, which is how he become a ghost hunter and ended up visiting Redemption, Wisconsin.
The problem—trouble seems to follow Ike just as it did his fictional predecessor.
First, there’s the sound of a horse galloping down the neighborhood streets at night, even though there’s never a horse to be found.
Then, Ike’s on-again, off-again girlfriend Kat arrives with an urgent message for him.
But before she can deliver it, a journalist shows up, accusing Ike of murdering Abe … Kat’s former lover.
Surely, Ike can clear all of this up.
Except he’s disappeared.
And then, the journalist is found murdered.
And through it all, the sounds of endless galloping return, night after night.
Things definitely aren’t looking good for Ike, so it’s a good thing Charlie is there to get to the bottom of why a legend has seemingly come to life.

But gargoyles aren't real!

But then one of them is found dead.
Specifically, drowned.
In the lake.
There are teeth marks on the body … and they appear to be from an actual Loch Ness Monster.

"Twenty-four years ago, five-year-old Tori walked into her newborn brother's room in the middle of the night to see a shadowy figure abducting him.
The next morning, her baby brother’s lifeless body was found in the crib.
No one believes what she saw that night. Not her father. Not her mentally unstable mother. Not the police. In fact, there’s even some suspicion that Tori is somehow involved.
Years later, Tori is stuck in a job she hates, hiding from her past, afraid to let people get too close. Until her childhood friend is found with her dead newborn, claiming her “real” baby was taken by a shadowy figure.
Is the past coming back to haunt Tori? And will the truth set her free… or will it end up being more twisted than she ever could have imagined?"
"When Charlie agrees to accompany her friend Claire to her late grandmother's reading of the will, she assumes she is simply there for moral support.
She doesn't expect things to get so ... strange.
It’s odd enough that it takes place over a weekend, but that’s just the beginning ...
They also need to stay in Claire's grandma's supposedly haunted house with Claire's estranged family.
Things get even worse when a huge storm snows them in. No electricity, no phone, and no way out.
Throw a dead body into the mix, and there’s no question it’s now the world’s worst family gathering. Ever.
At least Charlie brought lots of tea, which she's going to need as she races to solve this closed-circle mystery before her friend’s dysfunctional family get-together results in anyone else being murdered.

"Everyone knows vampires don’t exist.
So when Mildred Schmidt, one of Charlie’s customers, is convinced that her next-door neighbor’s house sitter is actually a vampire, Charlie of course has to step in to see what is really going on.
What she finds is … disturbing. The house sitter DOES have some peculiar habits—like digging holes in the backyard in the middle of the night.
Surely, they aren’t … graves.
But then Polly, a local teenager, goes missing.
Of course, teenagers DO run away from time to time.
Less explainable is the dead body that then appears in the “vampire’s” yard.
Luckily, Charlie is hot on the case, and not a moment too soon as she races to not only find Polly, but to discover the killer before the bodies start to pile up.

" If you've got a problem, Charlie Kingsley probably has a tea that’ll help make it right.
EXCEPT when it comes to love. She does NOT do love potions.
Not even for Courtney, her pregnant new client who showed up three weeks before Christmas seeking a love potion because her husband was cheating on her.
So, Courtney asked about poison, instead.
She said she was joking. That's what happens between wives and husbands. They get angry and talk about killing each other. They don't really mean it.
It seems to make sense ... until Courtney’s husband turns up dead on Christmas Eve.
He was poisoned, of course.
And who is the number one suspect? Courtney. Of course.
But did she actually do it? Or is she being set up?
It's up to Charlie to sort through all the twists and turns in a case that gets more complicated the deeper she digs.
