Christmas Tale is the story of a Chicago Art Institute  student's disappearance from her family's estate on Christmas Eve in nineteen sixty five and a trip to Phoenix  by her fiance, Maui artist Gilles Barker, seventeen years later that reveals her fate.  Christmas Tale is a satiric look at life as seen through Gilles Barker's eyes as he struggles to separate reality from his imaginings and dreams.
 
 

Murder, revenge, the mysterious disappearance of a promising young art student from her family's country estate; Christmas isn't all Santa Claus and fancy gift wrappings under a pine tree in this satiric comic mystery.
 
"AN UNPREDICTABLE BLEND OF FANTASY AND MURDER."
 
On Christmas Eve of nineteen sixty-five, Jodie Jones, a graduate student at Chicago's Art Institute, disappears from her family's country estate.  No clue to her fate is uncovered in a month long search hampered early on by high winds and drifts of snow.  A year passes. Despite the protestations of the influential Jones family, authorities abandon their investigation.   
Maui artist, Gilles Barker, was Jodie's fiance on that Christmas Eve.  They were inseparable then. Today thoughts of Jodie only occasionally cross his conscious mind. 
 
As Gilles enters Maui's Kahului airport on the seventeenth anniversary of Jodie's disappearance, he has little reason to suspect his Christmas Eve flight to Phoenix will lead him to the bizarre explanation of Jodie's fate sending him on a mystical helicopter ride through reality and his childhood chimeras to a journey across space and time.
