Clydesdale Has A Midsummer’s Nightmare

When a Christmas Eve blizzard left Clydesdale stranded with Santa and seven elves, the resourceful detective makes the best of the situation. Clydesdale, Santa and all the elves hit it off and have a Christmas to remember. Several years later Santa appears at Clydesdale’s door with worries about a troubled production of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Nasty poison pen letters are just the tip of the iceberg of a case that eventually includes hit and run, assault, murder and rape. Clydesdale goes undercover by playing a bit part in the play and finds an oversupply of eccentric, troubled and perhaps deranged suspects. The oversexed, undersized, but well-endowed and detective discovers his personal strengths and weaknesses are well suited for the moody and overly dramatic personalities of the theater. When he goes undercover, he finds some of his best work is done between the sheets.
