Cat Griffin cares about three things: her mom, her friends, and volleyball. But when tragedy strikes, Cat’s life is turned upside down in the middle of her sophomore year. She’s uprooted to live with her estranged father in Silver Beach, California. It might as well be a foreign country, and from day one, Cat is bullied by a group of girls on the varsity volleyball team, the most popular sport at Silver Beach High. Pile on the homework and a hopeless crush, and Cat feels like she’s drowning. Life at ‘home’ isn’t much better. Her dad can barely make a sandwich and has no idea how to raise a daughter. With nowhere to turn, and all her friends many miles away, Cat has never felt so lost. If her and her dad can get along for more than five seconds, and if she can prove herself on the court, she might have a chance at a normal life in California. And maybe, just maybe, she and her dad will forge another kind of doubles team along the way.

There was once a greedy wolf. He was so greedy that every day he would eat enough food for TEN birthday parties and still be hungry for more. A wicked and ravenous wolf is on the prowl for dinner when he spots, dun dun dun, seven young goats left at home alone. But, fear not, whilst these kid goats may be little, they are clever, innovative and have enough downright silly tricks in hand to avoid getting eaten and maybe even get a little (or rather big) snack themselves.

The oldest mystery specialty bookstore in the world, The Mysterious Bookshop, has for most of its forty-five-year history commissioned an original short story as a holiday gift for its customers. Written exclusively for the store and never published elsewhere, the stories were given as a holiday gift to its customers as a thank you for their business, handed out or mailed between Thanksgiving and New Year’s Day. The prompt for the story requires three elements: that it be set at Christmastime, that it involve a crime of some kind, or the suspicion of one, and that it be set at least partially in the bookstore. And from these loose structural guidelines, diverse tales took flight. The dozen tales included in this volume are among the finest to be produced in this annual tradition, sure to charm any reader looking for a holiday-themed escape.
