A Christmas Visitor by Anne Perry

This is a tale of a murder at Christmastime. The mother, son and father had gone to a festive show and then came back home.

The father leaves to take a walk.  He never comes back.  The police do find his body and the questions start as things are not right about the whole thing.

The other family members show up, some with spouses and everybody helps with collecting the clues to piece this puzzle together.

First off there is chatter about the deed to the house and lands. Forged documents and who is to gain comes up. Body was found upriver but river was flowing in the opposite direction.

I never thought for a minute it was who they discover, such crime solving skills they have.

I received this book from National Library Service for my BARD (Braille Audio Reading Device).

 

 

A Child's Christmas in Wales by Dylan Thomas

Comical at times as the kids talk about years gone by when they were younger and the fun things they 

would do around the holidays. Such fun memories.

Christmas at the Restaurant (The Nantucket Restaurant series Book 2) by Pamela M. Kelley 

About the author starts this book and how to contact her.

Nantucket at Christmas. Love hearing of the stroll.

Family inherited the restaurant with understanding they all had to work at it for a full year. After that others left the island but make visits still while others stayed on.

Work is going great with more being served. The stroll brings out a special menu along with wine from a nearby location combining efforts to serve the bigger crowds.

Love hearing about the the celebrations, even the small ones that pack a punch. So many fun times and things anybody can do during the season.

Food sounds so delicious wish the book had a recipe or two.  Lots of family get togethers and bonding with workers. Enjoy the tour of the island and sites. Grew up on an island and

remember when Santa would arrive on the police boat, very similar to this story. So memorable.

Especially love the Christmas angel, one who hears of other misfortunes and magically within days the problem is solved, usually due to one who donated money or goods to the unfortunate ones.
