A Christmas Quick Sketch: A Cherry Tucker Holiday Prequel Caper (A Cherry Tucker Mystery Book 0)

Description

A Christmas con in an Elvis-loving sting operation . . .

For the sassy, Southern portrait artist Cherry Tucker, a stay at the Heartache Motel will not make for a “Holly Jolly Christmas.” Instead, she finds it requires quick wits and a sharp lookout for crooked characters ready to deliver a dose of “Blue Christmas” to any victim they can con.

When Cherry and her poker-loving boyfriend, Todd, pop into Memphis to help Todd’s cousin, they find he’s been hustled out of his savings. Staying at the shady Heartache Motel, Cherry can’t tell a swindler from a mark and fears everyone is playing them for chumps. Cherry and Todd quickly find themselves in a dangerous sting that could send them to the slammer or mark them as pigeons by cons looking for an even bigger score.

For a fun-filled romp through a gritty gambler’s view of Memphis, grab Cherry’s Christmas caper today!
