Lady Vespasia Cumming-Gould, a beloved character from the Thomas Pitt series, finds herself at a Christmas party embroiled in a perplexing investigation.

What They're Saying

Critics Review

‘This brief work has an almost Jamesian subtlety, and with its powerful message of responsibility and redemption - “We need both to forgive and to be forgiven” - it conveys a moral force in keeping with the season’ Wall Street Journal 12/12/03 - Wall Street Journal

‘The tale is redolent with Victorian atmosphere, from the hypocritical snobbishness to the rigid social conventions of the time’ Tangled Web, 12 February 2004 - Tangled Web
