The holiday season means the chance to bake lots of yummy festive goodies - well, that's the theory! When it comes to baking, Lizzie Carter's still battling to make cakes that people actually want to eat as every recipe she's tried so far has turned out completely inedible!
Thankfully, Lizzie is saved from spending days slaving away in a hot kitchen in an attempt to create a perfect mince pie by a chance to get sleuthing...
A priceless necklace has been stolen from a movie star actress staying at the glamorous Roseby Hotel and the woman in question insists Jack, the local private investigator and the man Lizzie is dating, is the only one she trusts to track it down and bring it back safely.

Can Lizzie and Jack track down the jewel thief before the precious necklace is lost forever? Will Lizzie end up in big trouble as she tries to catch the culprit?
