The Peaceful Valley crime wave
1914. Nothing much happens in Peaceful Valley, Montana ... and that's just how Sheriff Lucas Monk likes it. He hasn't had to resort to his fists or sidearm in years. Then the theft of a wooden cigar store Indian sets off a crime wave like nothing Lucas has ever seen. Teenager Charity Axthelm goes missing, and Reba Purvis's housekeeper is poisoned with cyanide Reba is sure was meant for her. It's not long before the first corpse shows up, and it's up to Monk to solve each of the crimes and restore the peace. -- adapted from jacket

CHRISTMAS GIFTS
Baked turkey and skillet-browned cush - a mixture of wheat bread and corn meal soaked in hot water, then fried with raisins and spices. [...] the road crested and began to descend along the rim of a snow-skinned meadow. Mistletoe and holly berries hung festively from the rafters, and near the hearth was a cut spruce decorated with red paper and red candles, snippets of cotton and a five-pointed star. In the morning, when he awoke in the trundle bed, the storm was over, and the day before Christmas sparkled silver and white under a pale sun.
