A review by ajnel
The Christmas Guest by Peter Swanson

dark mysterious tense

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

A brilliantly compact Christmas murder mystery, to make any Christmas eve very special.  The art of writing a fine novella is running strong in Swanson's veins.
