Book Reviews of Aunt Dimity's Christmas
Book Review: Awesome!
Summary: 5 Stars
What an engaging character "Kit" was! I was as beguiled as Lori. The story really surprises the reader with its turn of plot. It starts out to give you the impression it'll be a kind of cozy perfect, fairytale story and ends up being something more touching and meaningful. I was compelled to finish this book in one day. I love the interwoven history, handsome men, the crusty but good-in-the-end townsfolk, and Will Sr. I sometimes miss the enchantment and wonder of the first book, but I don't think it can be recaptured once the secret is out so to speak. This Christmas novel was a very satisfying read indeed. Nancy Atherton is getting way up there on my favorites list which includes Candace Robb, Aaron Elkins, Maggie Osborne, Gary Jennings, Kate Ross, Diana Gabaldon, Stephen Lawhead, Elizabeth Peters, Preston/Child, Ken Follett, and Christine Feehan.
Summary of Aunt Dimity's Christmas
Lori Shepherd can hardly wait to celebrate Christmas this year with her husband, Bill and twin sons in the beautiful cottage willed to her by Aunt Dimity. Then Lori makes a disturbing discovery beneath the cottage's snow-covered lilac bushes--the body of a mysterious stranger, barely alive. Lori must put her plans on hold to team up with Julian Bright--a devilishly attractive Roman Catholic priest--to seek out the tramp's identity. Their adventure takes Lori and Julian from abandoned World War II airfields to homeless shelters--places where the Christmas star shines dimly, if at all. Finally, Lori unveils the tragic secret that led the stranger to her door, and must confront painful truths about herself and the true meaning of a perfect family Christmas.British Detectives Books
