Assassins Holiday

Silent Night, Savage Winter

Christmas was supposed to bury the past.

Shiffon was meant to be a memory, her name reduced to a whisper, her story sealed as another casualty of Maverick McClay’s violent legacy. But December in Atlanta peels back secrets like wrapping paper. When Shiffon resurfaces with her newborn son, it’s proof Maverick’s bloodline is still alive, and someone intends to claim it.

As holiday lights glow and snow dusts the city, Riot Mercer, Maverick’s volatile protégé stalks through Atlanta’s shadows. His eyes burn with newfound purpose, Maverick’s blood lives on in Shiffon’s infant son. The knowledge transforms his grief into obsession. The child must be his and Shiffon becomes the ultimate target. Riot unleashes chaos, spectacle, and fear, flushing Shiffon into the open one calculated move at a time.

With enemies closing in and time running out, Shiffon turns to the only women she trusts, Essence, Bailey, and Leila. Together, they navigate a season where danger hides behind tinsel, smiles mask intent, and violence wears a festive grin. This Christmas isn’t about revenge. It’s about survival. And a mother willing to become deadlier than winter itself.
