Escaping to Stromboli for Christmas, Charles Latterly never expected to find
himself in grave danger...

Set in Italy in 1866, A Christmas Escape is Anne Perry's thirteenth festive
Victorian novella. Perfect for fans of C. J. Sansom and Harriet Smart.

December, 1866. Charles Latterly, Hester Monk's brother, travels to Italy to
spend Christmas on the volcanic island of Stromboli. In his secluded mountain
hotel a curious group of people have gathered, and Charles senses a brittle
strain between some of his fellow guests as they visit the crater of the
island's famous rumbling volcano.

While the guests prepare for Christmas, the volcano threatens to erupt, and
they realise they must leave at once. As they plan their escape, with Charles
thrust reluctantly into leading the group to shelter, one of their number is
found dead. But if this is murder, there is a killer in their midst, and
Charles must navigate a path to safety...

her deft hand'
