In Santa, Sunrises, & Suspicions by Tonya Kappes, we return to Normal, Kentucky. Mae West, the Laundry Club Ladies, and her other friends are rehearsing for the Christmas story. But a murder puts all that pageantry on hold due to a homicide. Ms. Kappes has well-crafted characters and has the down-home feeling of a small town down pat. Add a little or a lot of humor, throw in a pinch of mystery and you have Normal, Kentucky, and Mae West and friends. I would happily recommend this book.
