Christmas Crime Cover-Up by Dana Mentink is the fifth book in her Love Inspired Suspense Desert Justice series. When Nora Duke is attacked in Death Valley, Seth Castillo steps in to try to protect her. Will Nora live to see Christmas or will the attacker succeed in silencing her for good? I loved how the author showed that no matter what your past, there is always forgiveness. The suspense in this story was intense. But remember the good guys always win!
I received this book from Celebrate-Lit for my honest review.

More from Dana
Well here we go! Book five in the Desert Justice series features Nora (Chief Jude’s estranged sister), a wild donkey who needs rescuing, and a crime from the past that intrudes into the present. Twisty, right? I was inspired to write this story after visiting Death Valley and learning about the feral donkeys which inhabit the region. They’re cute, visitors love them, but the burros can encounter health problems and cause environmental damage if they aren’t settled into a safe area. It’s amazing to me that wild donkeys are adept at detecting underground water sources. They dig “wells” which can benefit many thirsty animals. Fascinating, right? Hope you’ll enjoy meeting Bubbles the donkey and the helpful humans who rescue her in this novel. God bless and thanks for reading!
