Peace on Earth - Maia Ross

Crime never takes a holiday. Why should Irma?

Irma Abercrombie is an energetic retiree with a shadowy past, a mean right hook, and a profound love of Christmas. Surrounded by seasonal joy-and way too many toy Yuletide beavers-at the island house her family has owned for generations, she's all set for the perfect holiday.

But when a young friend asks for help with figuring out a financial snafu, her perfect day is in jeopardy. Can Irma-a woman with a yen for strong tea, cardio, and a well-oiled gun-find a thief before the festive season kicks off, or will Christmas be ruined?

Peace on Earth is a 30,000 word holiday novella, and is a spinoff of the Beaver Island mystery series.
