Christmas decorations brighten the storefronts of Sugarcreek, Ohio. Cheryl Cooper is visiting Swissters, a cheese shop down the street from the Swiss Miss, when she hears that a local business has burned down. Heini's Cheese Chalet and factory is a local favorite and word has it that arson is suspected. Who would want to burn down a cheese factory? And why? Cheryl's friend Naomi Miller helps her to understand that the ripple effect goes beyond one family. Amish farmers who provided fresh milk to the cheese factory now face the threat of losing their farms. While there is loss for them, there is great gain for the competition. Cheryl has to get to the bottom of all this to help her friends and the community at large. But what will her sleuthing cost her? Is it worth the risk?
