Playing detective, Grandmama has one of her more exciting Christmases...

'The characterisation is superb. The period feel is excellent... a real page-turner' - Historical Novels Review
Mariah Ellison isn't merely disappointed to learn that she won't spend Christmas at home with her married granddaughter: she is furious. Instead, Grandmama is being packed off to a house in the Romney Marshes to stay with her ex-daughter-in-law. Never having got on with Caroline, Mariah much disapproves of her new husband: decades younger than her, Joshua, an actor, is scarcely even respectable. There will be nothing to do, no one to visit, and no doubt the terrible weather will make even taking a walk impossible. It is going to be the worst Christmas of Grandmama's life.

As if that weren't enough, another visitor is foisted on the household. Then something shocking and quite unexpected happens. Has a crime been committed? Grandmama is surprised to find herself turning detective - another profession she deplores - and proving extremely good at it.

What readers are saying about A Christmas Guest:

'It was a lovely Christmas read... Perry has done a remarkable job of bringing the Victorian traditions to life'

'Another gripping story by Anne Perry'

'Five stars'

Rezensionen
Praise for Anne Perry's other Christmas novellas: 'This brief work has an almost Jamesian subtlety, and with its powerful message of responsibility and redemption - "We need both to forgive and to be forgiven" - it conveys a moral force in keeping with the season Wall Street Journal
