" This is Perry's 2008 Christmas story, but I enjoyed A Christmas Guest more than this book. This brings into play Emily Radley, sister to Charlotte Pitt (the Thomas and Charlotte Pitt series). Emily must travel to Scotland during the last weeks of Christmas to tend to a dying aunt. The aunt, Susannah, needs to know the answer to the 8 year old murder mystery that holds the village in fear. The past needs to be forgotten and the future lived, and the Christmas season provides this period of grace. "
