“This book is part of the Stonybrook Mystery series. Sheriff Wyatt Stone is called to the scene of a murder – Wallace Dunn, the highly respected owner of the local hardware store and the resident Santa, is found under a Christmas tree, stabbed to death. Add his autistic cousin, Derrick (one of his deputies); his estranged brother returning to town; and his love interest, Harley Harper, being abducted on Christmas Eve, and we have the ingredients for an edge-of-your-seat mystery.

I loved the tone of this book – very community-oriented, very “real life.” The plot moves quickly, the events are believable, and this is a read that you simply cannot put down.” –-Bonnie Cehovet

“What happened to Santa? I am really enjoying the Stonybrook Mysteries. After reading Redneck Ranch I was delighted to spend more time with Sheriff Wyatt Stone and his love interest Harley Harper. Most of all, I enjoyed reconnecting with Derrek, the deputy who is on the spectrum and teaches us those men and women can be the smartest and most loyal among us.” –Samanta Waltz
