Synopsis

As December turns Lake Eden into the North Pole, the heat is on in Hannah Swensen’s kitchen to honor
two Christmas promises: baking irresistible holiday cupcakes and preventing a person who attempted murder
from succeeding the second time around!

While Hannah speeds through a lengthy holiday checklist, drama in town grows like Santa’s waistline on Christmas
Eve. Her sister Andrea wants to stave off the blues by helping out at The Cookie Jar, Michele’s love life is becoming
complicated, Lisa needs Hannah’s advice, and Delores has a Christmas secret she’s not willing to share. But nothing
dampens the holiday mood more than the chilling mystery surrounding the man found near death in an abandoned
storefront two doors down from Hannah’s bakery …

The befuddled John Doe can’t recall a thing about himself—except for his unusual knowledge of restoring antique
furniture. With a smattering of clues and barely enough time to frost Christmas cookies, Hannah must solve a deadly
puzzle that could leave her dashing through the snow for her life!

Features Over a Dozen Cookie and Dessert Recipes from The Cookie Jar!
