Who killed Baubles the Clown?
The beloved performer Baubles, hired to entertain children with Sparkles his Shetland pony, is found slumped over in the corral strangled by his trick lasso.
Lily Rock's librarian, Meadow McCloud, wants to help find the killer but she has a personal crisis to deal with. Between Christmas errands and the plentiful expectations that come with the season, she's feeling pretty overwhelmed. Plus there's the secret she's kept from her daughter, Sage, that keeps threatening her peace of mind.
If that isn't enough, Sage is overwhelmed with her concerns. On winter break from the Lily Rock Academy, she's keeping her eye on Elf One and Elf Two at the town's wrapping station. But when her old friend Brad drops by wearing an unfamiliar fancy ring, she suspects he knows more than he's saying about Baubles's demise.

Oh, and the matter of a pesky murder.
Can Baubles's murderer be brought to justice before jingle bells ring? Or will a killer on the loose make this a silent night for all of Lily Rock?
