Slay bells ring - 7

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, especially now that Caprice De Luca has wrapped up her holiday-themed staging gig at a stunning historic home in downtown Kismit, Pennsylvania.

Behind all the red ribbon and glowing string lights, homeowners Chris and Sara Merriweather have it all.

But Chris, a Vietnam vet who plays Santa every year at the community park, has been displaying strange behaviour after a recent trip to Washington, D.C.

The joy of the season vanishes entirely when Chris is found murdered in a decorative sleigh, leaving behind his loyal malamute and lots of unfinished business.

As Caprice uncovers hidden secrets in Santa's workshop, the pressure is on to catch the candy cane-wielding culprit - before she's next on a killer's deadly wish list.
