Embroiled in a generations-long feud, an oil baron is convinced someone in his family will die soon—and it will probably be him. When blind PI Steve Smiley is called in to find answers, it seems like the perfect opportunity to avoid another bleak Christmas.
A phone call interrupts their meeting. A body is found upstairs, and skepticism gives way to reality. The tycoon is convinced someone’s picking off his family one by one. With the feuding parties quickly closing ranks, Smiley and McBlythe must get creative with their investigation.
