Mistletoe Murder (2012)
“They are extremely sturdy and keep coffee hot for a long time. $8.
“It’s a crime, I’m telling you, a crime.” Officer Culpepper’s voice boomed over the din in Jake’s Doughnut Shop. Jake’s was everybody’s favorite coffee shop, and today, four days before Christmas, it was packed. Lucy didn’t go to Jake’s very often; somehow her days didn’t include time to dawdle over coffee, and even if she had the time, she didn’t want to be tempted by the doughnuts.
But at noon Bill had come home early and announced that his knee was bothering him and he was going to take the afternoon off. Sara was feeling much better, so Lucy decided to seize the opportunity and take her mother shopping. They had gone through most of the stores in town, and everywhere they went her mother had the same comment.
“I just don’t see anything here that I want to buy,” she would say, shaking her head and clutching her purse with two hands.
