When someone buys the old Honeycutt house, Nora Bonesteel is glad to see some life brought back to the old mansion, even if it is by “summer people.” After the new owners discover more that old memories in the walls, Nora agrees to help them sort it out in a gesture of Christian hospitality, and is drawn into a time and place she never expected to revisit. Meanwhile, Sheriff Spencer Arrowood and Deputy Joe LeDonne find themselves on an unwelcome call to arrest an elderly man for a minor offense. The officers try to do the right thing and attempt to do their duty, but it begins to look like they may all spend Christmas away from home.
In a story of spirits, memories, and angels unaware, Sharyn McCrumb takes us on another Nora Bonesteel adventure with a familiar message that there is more to this world than the eye can see, especially at Christmastime.
