Entering Christmasville is the story of Miki Lewis, a project manager of Main Street Alive!, a company dedicated to revitalizing dying towns. She is given her dream assignment to create a history museum in her grandmother’s hometown Elkton, Iowa. But as she discovered pieces of the towns history she also discovers secrets; long buried secrets that her mother and grandmother intended to stay hidden forever.
