Description

A double festive treat for Christmas, bringing together two of Anne Perry's spellbinding seasonal novellas in one special edition.

A Christmas Journey:A tranquil weekend party in early December at a magnificent country house is shattered by a suspicious death.

Taking a leading role in the ensuing investigation is one of the most beloved characters from Anne Perry's Thomas Pitt series: Lady Vespasia Cumming-Gould.

When Gwendolen Kilmuir's body is found in the lake in the gardens of the estate, it appears she jumped from the bridge.

The host, Omegus Jones and Vespasia decide to find who or what might have led Gwendolen to resort to such an extreme measure.

They vow to make the guilty party seek forgiveness and expiation through the task of taking a sealed letter written by Gwendolen before her death to her mother up in the north of Scotland.

The journey will be both physically and emotionally arduous but will bring answers to some unexpected and profound questions. A Christmas Visitor:Henry Rathbone, one of the engaging characters from Anne Perry's William Monk series, arrives to spend Christmas at a family manor house near Ullswater, but his host, Judah Dreghorn, has slipped while crossing a stream in the grounds of the estate and drowned.

Not only this, but Ashton Gower, recently released from prison, is slandering Judah's name, claiming that his family rightfully owns the estate and that the forged deeds for which he was jailed were in fact genuine.

Rathbone and the two remaining Dreghorn brothers, also returning to the Lakes for Christmas, must discover the truth behind Judah's death and Gower's outrageous claims.
