Ava is a new student that suddenly enrolls in Chrissy’s elementary school without warning. Initially, Chrissy and Tyler try to figure her out. With a emotionless face, she is somewhat aloof and introverted; Always glued to her tablet. She doesn’t even start any conversation or display a single emotion when she’s teased at by her classmates. Chrissy tries her hardest to be friendly with her, but she never appears to want to talk…until all of a sudden she starts warming up to Chrissy and Tyler; talking about mundane school things.

As the story progresses, Ava becomes a bit more suspicious about Chrissy. Why is she so fascinated with Christmas? Why does she need to be away so much on the weekends? A Christmas “conspiracy” website that Ava frequents seems to ask a lot about what’s really going on the the North Pole? Could she be on to something?

Author’s Notes

Ava on the outside is just a normal kid, but the inside is another story. She’s a lot smarter than most people take for granted. A perfect contrast from Chrissy’s silliness and happy-go-luckiness, she is all truth and logic. Once the reader advances chapter by chapter, you’ll really begin to find out what Ava truly is all about.
