Meet Mac, a retired hero cop with writer’s block and a penchant for trouble. What holiday hijinks will he get himself into?
Probably a murder investigation.
Meet Millie, a local banker and former college athlete who may have a trick or two up her sleeve. What Christmas conundrum will she be brought in to solve?
Again, a murder mystery.
In this delightful cozy mystery set in downtown Geneva, Illinois, our sarcastic and savvy sleuths will seek justice for the untimely death of the owner of the beloved and charming retail mansion: The Tiny Wanderer.
It’s time to stroll on Third street. Immerse yourself in beautiful Christmas décor. Drink some hot chocolate and help solve the Christmas Walk Caper.
Review
This is my first read of a book by J B Michaels. It's not surprising that Mac, a cop forced to retire early, gets involved in a murder investigation. Millie, on the other hand, comes with a bit of mystery her own. Taken together, they ferret out the killer amidst all the holiday preparations.
This cozy is well-written and the pace is steady. There are enough surprises and tensions to keep the reader engaged. It was a fun and light read. If you enjoy cozy mysteries with a paranormal twist, you'll enjoy this short read to break up your day. The Christmas Walk Caper is the first of five in the Mac and Millie Mysteries.
The Valentine Dine or Die (Book 2)
The Swedish Days Swindle (Book 3)
Festivals of the Vine (Book 4)
