The Yuletide Caper J L Salter

How can a down-on-his-luck 30-year-old possibly assist this old WW2 combat veteran who briefly needs shelter and food? On this cold Christmas weekend, Matt Clarke has his own worries - he's a stranger passing through this small Tennessee town when his truck is stolen. There has to be an empty bed in this four-story nursing home because grizzled John Lester just saw the funeral home staff drive away with a body. If they do manage to get inside, perhaps they can fool the skeptical, lovely, young nurse, Lucia Alvarez. But what about the brusque aide who's a stickler for rules and challenges the absence of a doctor's referral and other vital paperwork?Is there any possibility of a future... for Matt and Lucia?Where's a Christmas Miracle when you need one? Or two?
