About this series
Female private investigator Xara Smith of Irving, Texas gets the most unlikely of clients. Little ten year old Samantha Dover wants to hire a detective to help find her missing friend. Xara, along with her business partner Jill, and her girlfriend Jana try their best to protect little Samantha from her own mother, the drug dealer, the pimps, and the human trafficker. As the mystery moves along we start wondering if it will be a happy Christmas for Samantha or not. Warning! The scene where the drug dealer is interrogated is pretty rough and not appropriate for younger or more sensitive readers. Girl scout cookies, Russian stacking dolls, Christmas presents, gum shoe detecting, stun guns, Mr. Hammer, girls in pink costumes, a tent set up in a barn, and a surprise ending.
