Domesticated Spirits (A Daisy Gumm Majesty Mystery, Book 18): Historical Cozy Mystery

Unearthed Bones Threaten Domestic Bliss

—1926, Pasadena, California—

Newlyweds Sam and Daisy Rotondo are settling into married life when their plans for a peaceful home are upended—by a cat. Lou Prophet’s battered old feline, Yuyu, digs up a bone in their backyard, which turns out to be human. As the discovery leads to an unsettling mystery, Daisy and Sam find themselves entangled in a decades-old disappearance.

With law enforcement investigating, gardening on hold, and Daisy attempting to master domestic duties—including the culinary arts—their quiet life is anything but. When the past refuses to stay buried, Sam and Daisy must dig deep to unearth the truth before it shakes their new life apart.

Alice Duncan spent years avoiding what she knew she should be doing—writing—by professionally folk dancing instead. Eventually, her muse won the battle, and she’s been crafting engaging historical cozy mysteries ever since. Now a proud resident of Roswell, New Mexico, Alice enjoys the lack of smog and crowds while spoiling her beloved herd of wild dachshunds. Visit her at aliceduncan.net.
