“Snowflakes swirl down gently in the deep blue haze beyond the window. The outside world is a dream.
Inside, the fireplace is brightly lit, and the Yule log crackles with orange and crimson sparks.

There’s a friend seated across from you in the cozy chair, warming your heart.
There is mystery unfolding.”
