the Book:
Publication Date: November 4, 2024
Genre: Mystery. A hardboiled PI novel with
a fallen angel protagonist
Following
the death of Kris Kringle, the operation of Christmas is taken over by a
shadowy organization known as the Company who shutter the toy line at the North
Pole and reestablish their base in the newly minted city of Yule Tide.
Suspecting their motives, the Archangelic Council recalls its liaison to
Christmas—an angel named Harold. When Harold refuses to return to Heaven, he is
stripped of his wings and is grounded on Earth. His influence gone, Harold is
fired by the Company and becomes a none-too-successful private investigator.
But when he is hired by the beautiful wife of a Company executive to locate her
missing husband, Harold sees a chance at redemption.
Searching for the missing man, Harold uncovers secrets that the Company will
protect at all costs. He must also balance his growing attraction to his client
with a renewed hope of regaining his wings.

“I have come to understand more than I once did about
the nature of truth. Truth is, dare I say it, ‘fungible.’ Different versions
are traded like tchotchkes as if none have any meaning except to distract… I’ve
also found that people believe most ardently in what they wish were the truth.
Whereas the actual truth, like the cry of a trapped miner, is but a muffled
echo sounding from a cavern of the damned.”
