What They're Saying
Critics Review
The tale is redolent with Victorian atmosphere, from the hypocritical snobbishness to the rigid social conventions of the time
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 *The tale is redolent with Victorian atmosphere, from the hypocritical snobbishness to the rigid social conventions of the time * Tangled Web *If you don’t have a lump in your throat by the time you finish the final few pages, you shouldn’t have had all that sherry * Yorkshire Evening Post *
