When Meg is organising a practice session with a group of children for the annual Christmas pageant she discovers a baby in the manger - a baby that no one has seen before. The police are alerted and the search for the mother of the baby is added to the many issues Chief Burke is investigating several days before Christmas.
The time of the Caerphilly annual Christmas pageant is a busy one with many tourists flocking to the tour to enjoy the attractions. Then in neighbouring Clay County a man has been shot and the police in Caerphilly have been instructed to look for him, even though there is suspicion that this is a witch hunt with the accused person being innocent. Then Mrs Thistlewaite's cat has disappeared again!
As well as Meg and Michael becoming temporary foster parents of the baby in the manger, their house is filled with family members and friends coming to celebrate the festive season with them. Meg becomes involved in trying to resolve the incidents, some of which affect family members, as soon as possible so that everyone can enjoy Christmas.An enjoyable Christmas cozy crime story.
