A Christmas Odyssey by Anne Perry
3.0
This was a good seasonal read. As always, Anne Perry is a masterful writer with a truly talented ability to develop characters and set a mood for her books that makes you feel that you are standing right next to the characters and experiencing the story with them, rather than simply reading it.
In this Christmas story, James Wentworth is heartsick over his son Lucien, who has taken up with a very bad group of people and left his life with his family for debauchery, drugs and other bad choices.
James is determined to find his son and bring him back to his family and his life, so he enlists the aid of his friend Henry Rathbone to search for Lucien. Henry gathers a group of companions who know the darkside of London well, and who agree to help him search for Lucien.
The story that ensues will take the reader on a dark journey through despair, bad choices, and dangerous people, but will ultimately result in a Christmas happy ending. A fast, easy and entertaining read perfect for the holiday season!
