    About this ebook

    This short story introduces you to Dr. Isabella Mumphrey, a female MacGyver/Indiana Jones character.

    This short story has anthropologist Isabella Mumphrey excited about spending her first Christmas with her Venezuelan DEA agent boyfriend. The two met in the Guatemala Jungle in Secrets of a Mayan Moon. They found their missions intersecting in Secrets of an Aztec Temple. This Christmas story takes place before Isabella meets with her aunt at the Hopi Reservation and becomes entangled in Hopi myths and human slavery in Secrets of a Hopi Blue Star.

    Isabella's plans of a wonderful Christmas are thwarted when her father hands her a World Intelligence Agency mission. He allows Tino to help her with the mission, so they can be together. As the days hasten to Christmas can she decipher the wooden cube she's been handed or will her first Christmas with Tino be a bust?
