Weekly Spotlight - Turkey Day Reads


Turkey Day Murder
Tinker’s Cove has a long history of Thanksgiving festivities, from visits with TomTom Turkey to the annual Warriors high school football game and Lucy Stone’s impressive pumpkin pie. But this year, someone has added murder to the menu, and Lucy intends to discover who left Metinnicut Indian activist Curt Nolan deader than the proverbial Thanksgiving turkey—with an ancient war club next to his head.

The list of suspects isn’t exactly a brief one. Nolan had a habit of disagreeing with just about everybody he met. Between fixing dinner for twelve and keeping her four kids from tearing each other limb from limb, Lucy has a pretty full plate already. So what’s a little investigation? But if she’s not careful, she just may find herself served up as a last-minute course, stone-cold dead with all the trimmings…

Turkey, Thievery and Twins 
They wanted a feast, but what they got was a mystery with all the trimmings.

Twins Samantha and Lizzie hoped for a peaceful Thanksgiving in their charming Texas town. But when Lizzie's boss, a seasoned private investigator, entrusts her with a baffling case, their holiday takes a curious turn.

A priceless family heirloom, on loan to the museum, vanishes during the annual Pilgrim Pageant in front of hundreds of witnesses. Left in its place is Gobbles, the town Turkey, who every year gets a stay of execution for the holiday feast.

Lizzie suspects the elusive newcomer orchestrated the daring switcheroo. Tensions flared between him and her boss, when he attempted to purchase the heirloom the day prior. The case seems open and shut. But there's a hitch: the town newcomer has an unbreakable alibi.

Samantha and Lizzie are determined to leave no cranberry unturned as they unravel a web of secrets and prove even the tightest alibis can't hide the truth when the twins are on the case.

Once Upon a Thanksgiving
The PTA Mom series is filled with heart, holidays and three PTA Moms who find their own happily-ever-after.

The first in the series, Once Upon A Thanksgiving is about when Harry Met…Samantha.

Single mom, Samantha Williams is too busy for love. She’s already juggling work, four kids, a one-eyed cat and now the PTA’s Social Planning Committee. But when Samantha meets Harry Remington, she finds herself drawn to the kids’ principal. But not only is Harry recovering from a bad break-up, he’ll only be around until December. Maybe they can date knowing there’s an expiration date on their time together. But sometimes the heart has its own mind. By Thanksgiving, neither are ready to let go of what they've discovered together, but both are afraid to hold on. Will their love be enough to overcome their pasts as they look beyond their present to a future…together?

Reminiscent of Debbie Macomber’s Cedar Cover series, this first book of the PTA Moms trilogy, Samantha and Harry discover that they’re a couple who have a lot to be thankful for.
