Author
By Broken Birch Bay
A HISTORICAL MYSTERY OF FAMILY, ROMANCE, AND HIDDEN DECEPTION Set in the early twentieth century, single mother, Petra Livingston, and her young son, Jefferson, have come home to Broken Birch Bay, Minnesota braving the town gossips over her sordid past. Spurred by contention with her dad, Petra takes a job at a local cafe, working for her independence and meets Don De Muir, who worms his way into her heart—which she swore she’d never give away again. Thrilled to have her ally and sister, Petra, back home, Honey sets aside her mom’s disappointment in her and plans her wedding to a local fisherman, Jeb Spangler, a man with a broken past and a temper. However, as the time draws near, Honey gets cold feel, reevaluating her feelings for Jeb. Will Petra allow Don past her defenses? Will Honey and Jeb move forward into their future or be derailed by what comes between them? Will it be one of the sisters, a boyfriend, or a parent who lifts their hand to protect another, taking a life in the process? Told in a split-timeline of prison diary entries and narrative, fans of Christian mystery, Christian historical fiction, and clean romance will relish this unique mystery.

Author KC Hart

Learning about the crime from the killer’s point of view while viewing the lives of the two young women as they move unknowingly toward the horrendous event made me race to the end of the story with bated breath. This is a story of family, love and relationships that is written in a way that evokes all kinds of emotions. Jenny Knipfer did a fabulous job of weaving a story full of suspense, love, tension, and mystery. KC Hart, bestselling author of the Katy Cross cozy mystery series

Self-Publishing Review

The fourth book of Jenny Knipfer's excellent Sheltering Trees series, By Broken Birch Bay is another swirling portrayal of uncertain romance and intense family drama. Steeped in longing reveries and subtle prayers for deliverance, this is a tender and emotional story, particularly when it comes to Petra's scarred heart and Honey's innocent hopes for happiness, but there is also grit and struggle, giving the book the feel and import of a Christian parable. Knipfer masterfully weaves a small-town historical drama, peppered with a sharply crafted whodunit, resulting in a rustic and remarkably engaging work of pastoral historical fiction that offers a greater sense of mystery than previous installments in the series.
