Delaney Roberts is back in this, the second of Deborah Miltonâ€(tm)s mysteries in her series based on the Fruit of the Spirit found in Galatians 5. Itâ€(tm)s now Christmas time and Delaney is not in a holiday mood. Quite frankly, her life as a mom and wife is boring her to tears. All that changes the instant she realizes that someone has left a very special present in the back of the family car...a newborn baby. Once again, Delaney is caught up a whirlwind of emotion and danger as she tries to help find the babyâ€(tm)s mother. Of course, part way through her search, she discovers another crime has been committed. This one, theft. Delaney starts to wonder how badly she wants to find this babyâ€(tm)s parents, as it occurs to her that this precious little one has quite thoroughly stolen a large piece of Delaneyâ€(tm)s heart. Joy to the World? is the Inspirational Novel winner of the prestigious EPPIE Award 2001 for excellence in the field of the electronically published. The first in this series, You Call This Love? was also an EPPIE nominee. Deborahâ€(tm)s first novel, Angel, Mine, won the EPPIE for most Inspirational Novel of 2000.

A Christmas Mystery,
By
This review is from: Joy to the World (Paperback)
JOY TO THE WORLD? by Deborah Milton is a leisurely story about the everyday life of a mother of three boys who just happens to have a penchant for trouble. Who but Delaney Roberts would find a newborn in her car when she returns home after delivering charity Christmas packages?The bane of Detective Johnson's career, Delaney is intent on learning where the child came from. She does her own sleuthing in spite of and occasionally with the help of her husband, her police officer nephew, her neighbor and her own small boys. And then Delaney notices a teenage girl hanging around and follows her. That's when she finds a several-days-dead woman in an apartment. Delaney takes the teenager, Angela, home with her also and petitions Social Services to allow her to keep Angela and the baby girl she names Joy, at least until Joy's parents are found. A fire bombing, being forced off the highway and two kidnappings pick up the pace of an otherwise tedious holiday season. Not only is she looking for Joy's parents, but now Delaney's determined to find out why and by whom their lives are being threatened. JOY TO THE WORLD? is light reading with an unusual plot.
