Who stole the wise man?

Christmas Eve in Bluejay Ridge is the highlight of the season-but this year, the Nativity scene at the community chapel has turned into a holiday whodunit. One by one, the cherished figurines vanish: Joseph, a wise man, even the angel overhead.

Enter Roberta "Betty" Benino-fifty-something widow, retired screenwriter, and fiercely loving grandmother. With her two grandchildren as "junior detectives," her son Seth unexpectedly home for the holidays, and Nutty the squirrel adding his usual chaos, Betty is determined to protect the town's Christmas spirit.

Warm, funny, and brimming with family and community, Mischief and Mistletoe is a heart-tugging cozy Christmas caper, perfect for fans of small-town charm and holiday cheer.
