Dae’s Christmas Past by Joyce and Jim Lavene

Dae’s Christmas Past
by Joyce and Jim Lavene

One of the best in this series! It’s Christmas time and Mayor Dae is getting ready for the Christmas festivites. A trip back in time, a new friend who can speak to animals and murder make this holiday whodunit a book you will not want to see end. Jim and Joyce are master story-tellers and that have shown that again with this great read!

If you haven’t fallen in love with Dae and Duck already, the upcoming ‘holiday season’ would be the perfect time. And if you’ve been a really good boy or girl this year, maybe Santa will send some of the previous “Missing Pieces Mysteries” in your Christmas stocking this year!

The writing team of Jim and Joyce Lavene never cease to amaze me…The spiritual and enchantment element that Jim and Joyce put in the novel was so believable…

~A Chick Who Reads

Dae’s Christmas Past by Joyce & Jim Lavene is a top-notch cozy mystery. It is fast-paced and the perfect book to spend an afternoon with, because you won’t want to put it down once you start reading. I was quickly immersed in the characters, the town of Duck, NC, and the mystery from the beginning…

Dae’s Christmas Past
By Joyce and Jim Lavene

Cozy Mystery

Synopsis:

 

Missing Pieces Mysteries #6

When wild horse rescue director Tom Watts is found dead on Duck Road, newly re-elected mayor Dae O’Donnell is determined to find out who killed him. Her friend Jake Burleson is accused of killing Tom even though the two men have been good friends for years.

The problem is the excavation of the horse cult that’s been happening on Jake’s property. Tom and several archaeologists working on the project think that Jake should give up his land to widen the search for artifacts. Jake won’t do that.

It’s not that Jake hasn’t been acting strangely. He shoved one of the ancient stone horses into Dae’s hands when he knew she was afraid to touch it. He’s obsessed with stopping the excavation—maybe to the point of killing Tom.

But Dae thinks there may be more to the story. Jake’s determination has shown her what the horse cult was used for thousands of years ago, the destruction the demon horses brought before they were stopped. She’s afraid something of the past may have already returned to the Outer Banks of North Carolina, and there may be more deaths to come.

Featuring Pet Psychic Mary Catherine Roberts!
