A Christmas Journey (2003)

Mlle Alice, pouvez-vous nous raconter votre rencontre avec La Disparue de Noël? "Voilà quelques temps maintenant que je dévore tout ce que je peux lire de la plume d'Anne Perry. Malheureusement, lorsque je l'ai connue, on ne trouvait déjà plus certains de ses récits de Noël. Quand j'ai trouvé ...

Unlike the previous two stories in the series, which were set in mid-19th century, this story is set in Victorian England in the same timeframe as the Thomas Pitt mystery series.

A Christmas Secret (2006)

I chose this book in my local library, partly because it was short(!) and partly because I had never read anything by Anne Perry. I did not have particularly high hopes for the book, but I was pleasantly surprised. The central characters are Dominc Corde and his wife, Clarice. Dominic is chosen b...

L'odyssée de Noël (2010)

I love Anne Perry books, but this one felt disjointed. It's the second holiday book I've read with Rathbone as the lead character.It's a short book and I don't know if that's why it didn't feel developed? I couldn't get a fully developed mental picture while reading it, which I usually can.Most o...

A Christmas Odyssey. Anne Perry (2010)

An interesting plot about an unlikely band of strangers trying to find a prodigal son lost in the underworld of Victorian London. But it has very little to do with Christmas, aside from the dates of their search. And the tale itself is repetitive, dull and confusing, with an unfortunate focus o...

A Christmas Hope (2013)

Claudine Burroughs lives an empty life. She is like a strangr to her openly ambitious husband and she dreads the society parties, balls, and teas of her wealthy, socially prominent friends. The only joy she has is in her volunteer work at a women's clinic for poor women which her husband sees a...

Book

Das Weihnachtsversprechen (2010)

Another one of the best entries in this series--although the Cockney dialect may take a while for your mind's ear to "hear," the story is charming. It features Gracie Phelps from one of Perry's mystery series and the mysterious Mr. Balthasar, whom I'd like to read more about! The book also made m...

Un noël plein d'espoir (2011)

Bon, soyons clairs, ce n'est pas le meilleur Anne Perry que j'ai lu. Comme toujours pour ses "spécial Noel", le héros du livre est un personnage secondaire de l'une de ses deux séries. Cette fois c'est l'ennemi intime de Monk qui s'y colle. Le début est très prometteur, notamment parce qu'il expl...

The Christmas Hope (2013)

Perry's quick, simple and pleasant Christmas book for 2013 is a straightforward story featuring one of the characters in the Monk series. Protagonist Claudine volunteers in the clinic for street women. In this book she is in her privileged life at a holiday party when she witnesses a murder. The ...

Book

Der Weihnachtsverrat (2013)

As usual, Perry has produced a good, quick reading mystery, involving one of my favorite characters, Victor Narraway, as a young, newly posted lieutenant to Cawnpore. We have a slight introduction to frontier life in India and some aspects of military posting there. I gave this book 4 stars as ...

A Christmas Homecoming (2011)

In retrospect maybe reading this book in August wasn't the best idea, but in my defense, I had just just bought my first three Christmas presents and my thoughts were on the holidays. But, in truth, I think that my reaction to the book would have been the same if I had read it on Christmas Eve j...

Le Spectacle de Noël (2013)

This book is a clever riff on the "Dracula" plot by Bram Stoker, as well as an engaging murder mystery set in an isolated mansion, cut off by a snowstorm, amidst a theatrical company and a wealthy family. It is also centred on the sympathetic and engaging character of Caroline Fielding, the moth...

A Christmas Grace (2006)

This was different from the previous novels and I really liked it. Charlotte Pitt's sister, Emily, goes to Ireland to stay with their dying aunt and help solve the riddle of an old murder so the aunt can die in peace. But history seems to be repeating itself as a similar situation unfolds. Emi...

Book #6 in Anne Perry's Victorian Christmas mysteries. It is 1868, and Emily Radley is called away from the comforts of Christmas in London with her family, to attend her dying Aunt Susannah who lives in Connemara, on Ireland's west coast. Emily is reluctant to leave home, but with her husband's ...

La Révélation de Noël (2006)

This is a small book and it only took me a day really to read it although I started it last night. I ended today around noon. The story is set in the year 1895 in Ireland. Although the story was interesting in itself, it ended leaving many questions unanswered. The main character, who had travell...
