A Christmas Promise by Anne Perry
It's a freezing winter day in London, 1895, when two young girls have a chance meeting. The pair turn out to have much in common: both are poor, both are parentless. But Minnie Maude, only eight, has even worse problems: the uncle with whom she lived has just been murdered, and if that's not enough, the family's donkey has run away. Her new friend Gracie, all of thirteen, feels obliged to help her, and so the girls team up to solve the mystery--and find Charlie the donkey. Anne Perry fans will recognize young Gracie as Charlotte Pitt's maid, a continuing character in the author's bestselling Charlotte and Thomas Pitt Victorian mystery series.Anne Perry is the New York Times bestselling author of two acclaimed Victorian England series: the Charlotte and Thomas Pitt novels, which include Buckingham Palace Gardens and Long Spoon Lane, and the William Monk novels, which include Execution Dock and Black Assassin. She has also written a series of five World War I novels, as well as seven holiday novels, the most recent of which is A Christmas Odyssey, and a historical tale set in the Ottoman Empire called The Sheen on the Silk. Anne Perry is a Scottish author.
