Police Navidad

A Christmas pageant. A dead Santa. All is not calm, and it's definitely not bright.

The only thing Charlee Russo wants for Christmas are some silent nights so she can work on her mystery manuscript. Instead, she gets snowballed into writing and directing a Christmas play as a fundraiser for an elementary school to be held at the local senior center. But when the actor playing Santa drops dead at rehearsal, Charlee must deck the halls with thoughts of murder.

Rehearsals continue while she is forced to contend with sabotage, assault, and actors-young and old-refusing to learn their lines. As she digs deeper into Santa's so-called accident, she gets a frosty reception from all the suspects on the naughty list. With the school funding at stake and a potential murderer involved in the production, she needs a Christmas miracle. Can Charlee pull off the pageant without anyone else getting sleighed?
