Kurz vor seiner Abreise nimmt Sherlock Holmes den Auftrag eines jungen Mannes an, dessen Großonkel im All verschollen ist. Es wäre nicht Holmes, wenn er bei der Suche nach dem Verschollenen nicht auch noch einen Mordfall aufklären könnte. Dr. Watson nutzt die Gelegenheit, um sich etwas Ruhm zu verschaffen.

Der Erfinder Coolbros bittet Sherlock Holmes um Beistand, da auf ihn schon zwei Mordanschläge verübt wurden. Er vermutet seine wirtschaftsschädliche Erfindung als Ursache der Feindlichkeit. Der Fall scheint Holmes interessant genug, um sich seiner anzunehmen. Dr. Watson ist ihm natürlich wie immer behilflich.

That should be a good thing, right? Eggnog and Christmas carols. Mistletoe and family. Except my dad broke his leg hanging the family wreath. My brothers are at war over taking proper care of Dad. Oh, and I just found out our family business, the Kringle Inn, is failing!

Ellie: I married Jake Talley when I was 16 because I was an orphan left with a cattle ranch to run, and getting hitched was the only way to keep me out of a foster home. It was supposed to be easy; a marriage of convenience. Only I'm not a kid anymore and my husband is the hottest guy in Riverbend, Montana. The plan was to get divorced when I turned 18, but life got in the way. Life, my feelings...the kiss. Did I mention the kiss? Only now he won't let himself touch me. The right thing to do would be to divorce Jake. But I can't help wonder, what would it be like to be Jake's wife?

Here's the deal. I'm 16, and I'm getting married. Super weird, I know. It was just me and my dad. We lived on a cattle ranch in Montana. He died suddenly, leaving me an orphan (which is still a thing). I'm 16 months away from being a legal adult, so I have two choices. A foster home or marry Jake Talley. My dad's foreman and really, my best friend. It's legal. It solves all my problems. Except now, I'm living with Riverbend's hottest cowboy - my husband in name only - and I'm still in high school. Where no one wants to date weird, married Ellie.

Jesus was a Jew. His mother, Mary was a Jew. - Finally, contemporary scholarship brings into focus Jesus’ Jewish roots/heritage. For centuries, the Jewishness of Jesus was ignored and this had enormous consequences, the attempts over the centuries to suppress this truth have led to heresies. The 1st Century Jewish conception of the role of the priest, prophet, and messiah are all explained. Fr. Doyle shows how the Jewish prayer life and feasts affected Jesus.

I’m known around the country as the Cowboy Princess. A reality TV star who likes champagne, expensive shoes, and cowboys. It’s a lie. For me, there has only been one cowboy...except he never wanted me. Now stardom has attracted the wrong kind of attention. A person I know is hunting me. My only choice is to go home to The King’s Land - home to Garrett, the man I could never forget. I’ve always loved Garrett, but I’ve always known he could never return that love. My childish lies drove him away.

Ellie: Quick recap. My dad died leaving me an orphan. Jake stepped in and married me rather than letting me go to a foster home. Did I mention I was only 16 at the time? It was okay for a while until it wasn't. Because those feelings that I had for Jake as my oldest friend slowly turned into something else over the years. Feelings he could not deal with. So I did the right thing and divorced him. It was the right thing. I'm pretty sure it was the right thing. Okay it was probably the wrong thing...but I don't think either of us know where we go from here.
