Mrs Claus and the Moonstone Murder

By Christine DeSmet

On her second day as county deputy in Moonstone, Wisconsin, Lily Schuster arrests a paleontologist for digging prehistoric beaver bones out of a lavender chicken pen. By the end of the week, it is murder.

There is the eighty-four-year-old Santa with two women brawling in his bedroom over which one gets to be Mrs. Claus. There is the summer pie contest that puts the town's most feared food critic at the judging table. And there is the moment she takes her third bite of banana cream pie and doesn't take another one.

Now Lily has a murder investigation, a suspect list full of people who all have something to hide, and a professor who keeps appearing in places that have nothing to do with prehistoric beavers. In a town where everyone knows everyone's business and nobody is telling the whole truth, the answers are buried somewhere between the meringue and the mischief.
