Jingle Bells, Rifle Shells (A Smiley and McBlythe Mystery Book 1)

Description

Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells . . . Rifle Shells?

Blind private investigator Steve Smiley and his partner hear a rifle shot. Hordes of Christmas shoppers scatter as a famous big-game hunter drops to the sidewalk. They grab the beautiful teen who was arguing with the man and flee to safety. The girl, the victim’s adopted daughter, has one passionate request: find her birth parents.

Smiley’s search for the truth about the girl’s adoption intertwines repeatedly with the murder investigation—and uncovers a shocking secret. Like it or not, he must first identify the killer in order to discover the truth about the teen’s adoption.

A host of suspects line up like Santa’s reindeer. Can Smiley make this the best Christmas ever—or will death and heartache be the only presents under the tree?
