One of my favorite Christmas reads by this author. Well narrated and recommended. Replayed audiobook several times before Christmas. ( )

A Christmas Secret by Anne Perry
1800's we find the pastor and his wofe leaving London to a new location because of the letter from the bishop.
They head to a counstryside parish where they will be for several weeks during the Christmas holiday. The pastor is to visit the sick and lend a ear to everyone who needs his assistance.
She busies herself around the house and finds things are not right: the pastor had left his Bible and winter clothing and then she reads through the church ledgers.
There are so many characters but easy to keep track of them all. Nobody knows where the priest woul've traveled to as she wants to send his Bible.
Amazing where he is found and how others just tell them so many secrets they've kept for years.
Like hearing of pathways that are only accessible during cold winter months.
I received this book from National Library Service for my BARD (Braille Audio Reading Device). ( )

Another of Anne Perry's mysteries - I enjoyed it. ( )

Ann Perry is really a gem. She can devise a plot out of the strangest stories. In this case, the story is not the beginning and end but is simply a means to introduce characters who turn out to be completely different from what the reader might expect. As a mystery, this one is less than ideal but the characters are exquisite. It is really hard to imagine the cause generated the crime but then that's the prerogative of the author. Overall, a good read. ( )

Another great Christmas Mystery by Anne Perry!

This one is lots of fun with the Vicor and his wife sorting through all of the puzzle pieces and the end is filled with quite a ruckus! ( )
