Summary

The only thing worse than murder is…no murder?

It’s Christmastime, and Dashiell Dawson Dane (just Dash) is looking forward to a quiet holiday season—no unexpected visitors, no relationship drama, and absolutely no murders.

But when his friend Millie asks for help, Dash says yes. Because that’s what friends do.

Millie’s brother, he learns, has been accused of stealing packages from his job as a delivery driver. Worse, he’s been fired. So, Millie’s request is simple: clear her brother’s name—and, in the process, save Christmas.

No small task, it turns out, as Dash faces a suspiciously hostile warehouse manager, stumbles onto a family of porch pirates, and somehow gets roped into the Nought Family Nativity Pageant. And when Millie’s brother disappears, Dash fears the worst. In Dash’s (growing) experience, that can only mean one thing…

Because it’s always murder.

Isn’t it?

It was REALLY hard to rate this one. Andrew Gibson was as on point as ever with his narration, but the book didn't stick with me. It actually took me over 2 weeks to listen to it. I even forgot there was a murder.
We got to know Millie's family. Eesh, intrusive much?! Millie and Keme are young. Their relationship is a young relationship but they're working on it... it's interesting. Keme deserved a medal for dealing with Millie's overall family. Pfft.
Bit of a hurdle for Dash and Bobby. Not huge. They did communicate. That was good.
I'll get the next series book, I want to know a bit more on each of the Last Picks, but I'll have a break first.

An Okay Series Addition.
