Millions of dollars have been embezzled from the Tiny Tim Children’s Fund and Christmas Eve is no bed of roses for struggling private eye Cactus O'Riley. It's a tough business; is she really cut out to be a detective? Should she try to scrape up the rent, or close up shop for good? The last surprise package she needs is a lovelorn deputy D.A., a pair of armed-and-goofy fugitives hunting some dead private eye, and her male secretary's overbearing mother, who mistakes a tense hostage situation for just the perfect little holiday murder mystery party. It's a Dickens of a Christmas for Cactus as she digs up long-buried mysteries, looks for a few small miracles, and takes a second chance on love, luck, and the life of a private eye.
