It seems like Otis King, the detective, is not a fan of Christmas hubbub...he'd rather spend time by himself and donate his gift money at the alcohol store.  I also guess Otis is too blue to sing Christmas songs.  Three days before Christmas, lovely Karinne Van Rynn knocks on his door.  Karinne is the new President of The City Union of Needy Tarts.  She feels that an audit should be made of the Union's funds by an outside firm, but before that happens, Accountant Dwight withdraws all the funds from their bank account ... about $200 thousand, in cash, and disappears.  Otis has been recommended for the job of finding Mr. Dwight.  Karinne also asks if the Blues Band can play at the forthcoming Christmas party, pro bono.  Well, Otis does the job successfully and is justly rewarded ... under the mistletoe.  This is the first work by author Peters that I have read, and I find he writes in a very sassy style with great British humour.  This is a very short story, and I'm looking forward to reading one of his longer stories.  You will enjoy laughing out loud as you cruise through this story.
