Summer: Not the best season for a North Pole boy. Hot and sticky, with an extra helping of muggy heat. But when a friend's nephew, Robbie, calls about a disappearance at his arts camp, private detective Noel Kringle heads off to summer camp to investigate. Because not only did a boy disappear. No one remembers him. Not the counsellors. Not the other boys. Just Robbie. Leaving Noel with questions and no answers. And a lingering dread that not even the bright summer sun dissipates. Mystery with a dash of fantasy, Noel Kringle mixes Christmas and sleuthing in a tale of magic and suspense.
