Synopsis

Forget a white Christmas in Houston. Poet, chef and amateur sleuth Neil Marshall sees a blue, blue Yuletide heading straight at him. And as if his holiday funk and the hectic seasonal demands aren't enough, Neil's grandfather, who bears an uncanny resemblance to old St. Nick, decides to make an unexpected visit. Soon, however, Neil learns that Grandpa's normal holiday cheer is closer to holiday fear as the elder Marshall is on the lam from a murder charge back in Colorado. It's up to Neil to nab the real murderer or else Grandpa's twelve days of Christmas may be his last.

About this title

From the Inside Flap:

MURDER WITH ALL THE TRIMMINGS

It's six days until Christmas and Neil Marshall--Houston poet and gourmet catering chef--feels flatter than a fallen soufflé for the holidays. But when his grandfather shows up looking like old St. Nick, Neil hits bottom.

For once-feisty Grandpa Marshall is running scared, suspected of having murdered his mining partner back home in Colorado. It's up to Neil to beat the old man's betrayers to the draw. Otherwise, his goose will be cooked and his granddad's mining interests served up to a murderer on a silver platter.

From the Back Cover:
