Santa's List: Aimee Thurlo

Paul Greyhorse, a former US Marshal shot in the line of duty, is now home for good. Paul's fetish is the Lynx - and this gives him the power to discern secrets, no matter how deeply hidden. 

When the sniper who ended his career and killed his partner comes to town, he joins forces with Deputy US Marshal Kendra Armstrong to track down the killer. Secrets of the Lynx is a story about love, and the special magic it ultimately brings into the lives of these two solitary people.

THE SANTA INTERVIEW

SANTA: Do you believe in Santa Claus? 

AIMEE & DAVID: I believe in the Christmas Spirit, that force that brings out a special sense of unity and brotherly love during the season. It’s what prompts us to share our good fortune and look out for our neighbors in trouble. That’s the real spirit of Christmas.

SANTA: What’s your favorite Holiday cartoon special?

AIMEE & DAVID: Claymation Christmas. You seldom see it anymore, but it’s brilliant and funny and warm.

SANTA: Which Holiday film can you watch over and over without falling asleep?

AIMEE & DAVID: Alvin and the Chipmunks. This was their first film, and it’s just adorable.

SANTA: What’s your favorite Holiday Movie?

AIMEE & DAVID: Last Holiday with Queen Latifah. It brings tears to my eyes. It’s beautifully written and acted.

SANTA: What’s your favorite Holiday desert you’d share with friends?

AIMEE: Turron. This is a very special and traditional dessert enjoyed by Latin American families. It’s an almond nougat and the best of all brands is Sanchis Mira. This is almost never absent from any holiday table in Hispanic homes. (Our big meal by the way isn’t on Christmas day, it’s on the 24^th, what’s known as Noche Buena.)

SANTA: What is your favorite Holiday tradition?

AIMEE & DAVID: We put up two Christmas trees here at home. We have to start the first week in December because one of those trees is generally HUGE.

SANTA’S GOTTA ASK: What’s your favorite gift Santa ever left under the tree?

AIMEE & DAVID’S GOTTA ANSWER:  I’d always wanted a Mouse King nutcracker, but all we could find were the more traditional kings. Then at an old shop, we found a badly damaged one for very little money. Truly it was a mess. David, my husband, restored it completely, fixed his sword, painted it and gave him a new base to stand on. I keep it out year round on my desk.
