In this cozy mystery, there's no place more heartwarming than a small-town teddy bear shop—especially when a coldblooded killer is on the loose. Autumn in Silver Hollow, Michigan, means crisp air, colorful leaves, and the annual teddy bear festival, Oktobear Fest.As the manager of Silver Bear Shop and Factory, Sasha Silverman will host the opening Cranbeary Tea Party. She barely has a moment to agonize over the return of her former high school rival, Holly Parker, whose new toy and bookstore in town could spell big trouble for the Silver Bear Shop—not to mention her cousin's adorable bookstore. But when Sasha discovers the dead body of Holly's shop assistant, the unpleasant woman suddenly looks like a real backstabber. So does Sasha's ex-husband, rumored to have rekindled the fiery extramarital affair he once had with the victim. Sasha can't let a homicide investigation takes over Oktobear Fest—but catching the real killer will be far from child's play.

"Sasha and her sister Maddie are thrilled that the Silver Bear Shop and Factory has won the Teddy Bear Keepsake Contest, which means they get to produce a holiday specialty toy, a wizard bear named "Beary Potter." Promising to be just as magical is Silver Hollow's annual tree-lighting ceremony and village parade. Only one hitch- the parade's mascot, Santa Bear-played by Mayor Cal Bloom-is missing. After a frantic search among the floats, Bloom is found dead. When the outfit is removed, it's clear the mayor's been electrocuted. Who zapped hizzoner and then stuffed him into his Santa Bear suit? While the police investigate the grisly crime, Sasha attempts to track down the murderer herself, with some help from the Guilty Pleasures Gossip Club. Can they wrap up this case in time for Christmas-or will Sasha meet her own shocking end?"--
