Meet Meera Patel – college dropout and soon to be murder suspect

Life in sleepy college towns in the south follows a predictable pattern. Summers are slow and lazy and campus is almost deserted. Scorching days end in flaming sunsets. Meat cooks on the backyard grills, infusing the air with heady aromas of charcoal and dry rubs. Kids splash in pools and run around, licking snow cones and popsicles. It’s the calm before the storm, before the frenzy of fall term begins in earnest.

Swan Creek, Oklahoma is no different.

Meera Patel has spent the summer months babysitting the three men in her family, hanging out with her pals by the lake. Her grandma couldn’t get home soon enough!

One hot July day, Meera bumps into her nemesis Prudence Walker, the rising star of the electrical engineering department. Things get ugly when Meera learns Prudence has a crush on her father. Then Prudence floats up in the college pond one morning. Meera is accused of murder!

While the campus is reeling under the shock of the young professor’s death, a student goes missing. When Meera is almost arrested by the local police for both the crimes, she decides to go sleuthing to save herself.

‘Tis the season for miracles… and murder.

A rifle crack shatters the holiday bustle. Christmas shoppers scatter as a renowned big-game hunter drops to the sidewalk. Blind detective Steve Smiley and his partner rush to rescue the teen — the man’s adopted daughter — who had been locked in a heated argument with him moments before.

The teen’s first plea is not to find the killer, but to find her birth parents. What begins as a straightforward adoption search spirals into something far deadlier when Smiley discovers the hunter’s murder is inexorably linked to the teen’s mysterious past.

With suspects multiplying faster than mall Santas — from bitter ex-wives to vengeful conservationists — Smiley must navigate a labyrinth of family secrets and old betrayals. As the twelve days tick down to Christmas, he races to find a killer, unwrap the truth and give a teenage girl her Christmas miracle.

Join blind detective Steve Smiley as he races against the twelve days of Christmas to solve a murder that’s anything but festive in Jingle Bells, Rifle Shells by Bruce Hammack. With multiple suspects, hidden motives, and a teenage girl’s future hanging in the balance, this clean mystery delivers all the suspense without the graphic content. Perfect for Sherlock Holmes and Hercule Poirot fans.

A stranger from the snow.
A warning from the future.
A mother’s fight to rewrite it all.

For Kelly McCormick, trying to balance single motherhood and a never-ending to-do list, is a constant battle. Every time she seems to inch ahead, some new emergency jumps up to knock her back. But she’s making it work… most of the time.

Less than a week before Christmas, she’s setting out to pack up the cabin of her closest friend with her two teenage sons in tow. Although it’s not a vacation, Kelly is hoping that maybe they’ll have one more magical memory there before the cabin is sold.

But with one son making it clear he doesn’t want to be there and Kelly feeling guilty about all she can’t do for both of them, that’s looking increasingly unlikely.

And that was before they found the man unconscious in the snow.

Events shift from difficult to downright life threatening in short order. This strange man has a world of trouble on his heels, trouble that comes with gunfire.

A simple good deed has turned deadly. But soon Kelly realizes that there is so much more to this stranger’s story, hundreds of years more.

Kelly is not a superhero. She is not a spy. She’s just a normal mom caught up in something extraordinary.

Right now, though, she needs to be extraordinary too. Because if the future this man has laid out is accurate, it’s a complete nightmare.
