Every year, the residents of Wellington Neighborhood gather for their annual Ugly Sweater Soiree. But this year, the tinsel isn’t the only thing tangled with drama. As the eggnog flows and the carols blare, old rivalries unravel like a poorly knit scarf.

When one guest is found strangled with a string of holiday lights halfway through the festivities, the rest must untangle the clues amid the glitter, garland, and gaudy knits to find the killer in their cozy community… and perhaps a method of removing blood stains from wool?

The only thing uglier than the sweaters… is the murder.
