Unexpected Christmas

From a detective called by an old friend to investigate a decidedly odd crime to a couple whose lives are irrevocably changed by the power of a wish…

From private investigator Dee and her hunky partner Diz as they try to track down her sister's missing outdoor Christmas display to an elderly woman trying to regain her holiday spirit to a moveable holiday feast that no one in the neighborhood will ever forget.

The stories in this Christmas collection showcase Annie Reed's writing at its best. See why she's called a master of short fiction that packs an emotional punch.

"One of the best writers I've come across in years."

Kristine Kathryn Rusch

"Annie Reed writes stories that span genres and are always fun and powerful."

Dean Wesley Smith, editor of Pulphouse Fiction Magazine
