About the Book



In this 18th mystery in the series, caterer Faith Fairchild discovers the body of a troubled young woman in an antique sleigh, just in time for Christmas.



Book Synopsis



"Katherine Hall Page is my favorite writer of the traditional mystery. Not only is The Body in the Sleigh a gripping whodunit, but it's a classic tale of hope."

--Harlan Coben

Caterer and minister's wife Faith Fairchild is back to solve her eighteenth deadly mystery in The Body in the Sleigh--the latest perfect puzzler in author Katherine Hall Page's multiple Agatha Award-winning series. Set on Sanpere Island in Maine's Penobscot Bay, this atmospheric holiday whodunit is chock-full of suspense, surprises, real heart, and small miracles. And, as always, the mystery comes with recipes for delectable holiday treats from Faith Fairchild's kitchen.



From the Back Cover



All the Fairchilds are spending the Christmas holidays on idyllic Sanpere Island. While the Reverend Thomas Fairchild recuperates from surgery, his caterer wife, Faith, rejoices in the rare family-time together. But Faith's high spirits are dampened when she discovers the body of a young woman in an antique sleigh in front of the Historical Society. The victim, a teenage drug addict, was beloved by many--and her untimely death rocks the tight-knit island community.

Meanwhile, local spinster Mary Bethany finds a newborn baby boy in her barn on Christmas Eve, along with a note left in the basket and an alarming amount of cash. As Faith tries to locate the child's mother, she realizes his abandonment may be connected to the dead teen's last days--and that, like death and life on Sanpere, evil and redemptive goodness are also intertwined.
