A Christmas Garland Audiobook

" I began to like Anne Perry by reading her Christmas novellas. She packs a lot of thought and a clever mystery into each little book. This one has some very grim images but she finishes with hope. "

" A good little mystery set in India during war time of 1857. Although at Christmas time, there is very little of Christmas to the story. "

" What would Christmas be like without a new Anne Perry Christmas Mystery? It would be a lot harder to escape our modern day holiday craziness and lose ourselves in the Victorian era. This time, the story revolves around a military murder trial in India. Perry successfully creates a twist on the locked room mystery that leaves the reader guessing until the end. Forget about wrapping presents and settle back for an intriguing Christmas Mystery. "

" Anne Perry is a great writer. Her small Christmas novels are always good by this one is outstanding. Set in India during the uprising it is a white knuckle courtroom story "

" I didn't think that this was really a Christmas book. It had a setting at Christmas but it was about war politics. It was good but not what I expected when I picked it up. "

" Read my review this week on bookreporter.com . "

" Christmas is merely an excuse to rush this case to judgement. Which it did, to a satisfactory conclusion. "

" a nice little short story that gives some enlightening background to narroway. I will be reading more of these christmas stories for further background info on her mayor characters. "

" Another well written book from one of my favorite authors. "

" This was one of the better Christmas stories by Anne Perry. I liked it because it really swelled with suspense and mystery. "

" Another heartwarming Christmas novella that takes place in India. Well worth a read! "

" This novella would have made a better short story. There were several times as I was reading that I thought "Haven't I already read this?" In fact I had, just earlier in the story. The link to Christmas was tenuous at best. I am giving it 2 stars because I did like the character of Narraway. "

" I enjoyed it. It helped that I knew the main character from other Anne Perry books. It was typical of her Victorian mysteries in some ways but had a rather convoluted ending that I didn't see coming until the little novella was almost over. If you like her style, you'll like this. "

" I enjoyed the book since it took place in India and I was in India while reading this. The story was very interesting but it did seem like the author kept repeating some of the story over and over. "

" Simple mystery, good conclusion. "

" Not one of Anne Perry's best. "

" It was a little irritating to think that no one else at any time thought of the issue that solved the case. So it was in that sense unbelievable. Also, was British military justice so weak such that someone could be put to death with no evidence? I can't imagine it being that way. "

" A really wonderful story! "

" A surprise at the end made this a special read. Ms. Perry has never failed to delight me. "

" Made one think. Ended a little abruptly. Would like a little more about the widow and her children. Good Christmas story. "
