When a beloved Beaver Island local goes missing right before Christmas, retired British spy Irma Abercrombie finds herself in quite the pickle. Has there been an accident, or are there darker forces at work? Will Irma be able to join together with Police Chief Mavis Pickle to help find her loved one, or will she get iced out?
Racing against the clock, Irma has to track down her friend before the elements—or something worse—claim them. One thing she knows for sure: if she and Chief Pickle can figure out how to work together, it’ll be a real Christmas miracle.
