Who will win this year's competition for handmade ornaments to travel from Nova Scotia for the Boston Christmas tree? The crafters of Gasper's Cove and Drummond are sure this will be their year, but good taste, political rivalry, and murder stand in their way. Is Sylvie Kulberg, harassed mother of three, navy wife, yarn bomber, and carport artist the hero they need in this time of creative Christmas crisis? Her cat and the female Royal Canadian Mounted police officer who lives in her basement think so, but the school principal has her doubts. As the pressure to save her reputation rises, Sylvie almost gives up, but then inspiration from the past helps her deliver answers, and ornaments, just in time.
