Book Cover & Preview Text
Reedy stomps about as Kris cringes in his chair.
REEDY
FIRE YOU, that’s what I should do! I’ve kept you on even though your supervisors call you “grossly sloppy,” all because you convinced me that you had great ideas for my Tiffany.

Reedy grabs Kris by the collar.
REEDY

and loves a Claus
named Evelyn.
It is also the tale of
a devilish
Mr. D
who has a vendetta against a Claus
named Santa.
And it is also the tale of
Santa
who won’t let go of his Rulebook

named Mrs. C.
All of these characters are knotted together
by a magical curse and an ancient contract
which can only be unraveled
with the help of a lawyer
named Daniel Webster.
