Jill Gardnerâor as sheâs now known, Jill Kingâis working to provide gifts for needy kids this Christmas. But someoneâs about to puncture the holiday spirit . . .
Jillâs store, Coffee, Books, and More, is co-sponsoring a charity dart tournament on Thanksgiving weekend with Chipâs Bar, where toys and cash will be collected. She and her new husband, Greg, will be competing as wellâthat is, if Gregâs brother and his girlfriend donât ruin the evening. But the event leads to something much worse than a family squabble when the bar owner is found dead the next morning after being used as a human dartboard . . .
Jill and her police-detective hubby both aim to find the killerâbut scoring a bullseye will be hard since the place was packed with a rowdy crowd of locals and a platoon of stuffed-animal-toting, very competitive motorcyclists. And with the nightâs big haul of cash donations left untouched, what could possibly be the motive for this murder?
