Set in Victorian New England this is the story of a grumpy old man named Ebenezer Bailey. Mr. Bailey is disliked by everyone in the small town of Norwich, and with good reason. One night immediately after a social soiree at the local Holiday Inn, Mr. Bailey’s house was burned to the ground, leaving him homeless just days before Christmas. Yes, the townspeople all had motive from this scrooge of a man, but who would commit this right before the Holiday?
