New York Times bestselling author Anne Perry's twenty-first heart-warming Christmas novella.
Can a missing person be found before it's too late? When Mariah Ellison arrives in the
picturesque village of St Helen's to spend the festive season with her old friend Sadie Alsop
she is shocked to discover that Sadie has vanished. Her husband has no idea where she has gone
or when she will return but thankfully Mariah has other friends in the village who are
willing to offer their hospitality. Once settled she begins a rigorous search for Sadie that
is fuelled by malicious gossip as harsh as the winter snow. Has Sadie run away? Has she been
kidnapped? Has someone harmed her? And how long can she survive if she has no shelter from the
bitterly cold weather? As Christmas Day approaches Mariah is increasingly determined to solve
the mystery of Sadie's disappearance and bring her home in time to celebrate Yuletide together
. . .
