The only thing worse than murder is…no murder?

It's Christmastime, and Dashiell Dawson Dane (just Dash) is looking forward to a quiet holiday season—no unexpected visitors, no relationship drama, and absolutely no murders.

But when his friend Millie asks for help, Dash says yes. Because that's what friends do.

Millie's brother, he learns, has been accused of stealing packages from his job as a delivery driver. Worse, he's been fired. So, Millie's request is simple: clear her brother's name—and, in the process, save Christmas.

No small task, it turns out, as Dash faces a suspiciously hostile warehouse manager, stumbles onto a family of porch pirates, and somehow gets roped into the Nought Family Nativity Pageant. And when Millie's brother disappears, Dash fears the worst. In Dash's (growing) experience, that can only mean one thing…

Because it's always murder.

Isn't it?
