At the local pet store stands a Christmas tree; instead of ornaments, it holds wishes from those in need. A young boy named Danny wishes for a coat for his mother, a sweater for his dachshund, and for the safe return of his missing father... a man just arrested for murder. Lori Carpenter wants to see Danny’s wish come true. She and her lawyer husband, Andy, must prove Danny's father innocent in a 14-year-old cold case to which he’s been connected through DNA... Dachshund… can be enjoyed alone or as part of a series (#20). Highly recommended to those who enjoy cozy mysteries along with other books by David Rosenfelt.

N o r r i n S h e a r e r

A lot has changed this year,

but not the spirit of giving!

Although Food for Fines has been post-

poned, the library

still wants to help the

Idaho Foodbank this

season.

Throughout Decem-

ber, we’re taking

cash or check

donations.

If you donate, we’ll

display a snowflake

with your name on

the “cloud” wall near

the Circulation Desk!

Please make checks

payable to The Idaho

Foodbank.
