A Christmas Tail

Hillari DeSchane

0/5 ( ratings)

A special child's bond with a unique Siamese cat uncovers an old tragedy--and rouses a murderous ghost.

Widowed Charlotte Hayward hopes Christmas in tiny Hawkshead village will build memories for her mute son, and a safer life. Thomas resumes his nightly wanderings, only to be rescued by Lucian Pierce, Charlotte's first love though not the man she married. Thomas bonds with Lucian's cat Flora and her kittens even as Lucian is accused of not just one murder, but two.

When Charlotte returns home with the son who might have been his, Lucian sees past his old pain toward a new future. Now the legendary Tarn Widow casts the shadow of the gallows over his hopes as Charlotte wonders--if Lucian is innocent, why is the ghost hounding him? Or is it the little feline family the ghost is after, and what old wrong could be righted by killing them?

Can young Thomas and his feline friends stop the Tarn Widow from taking her murderous revenge and prevent an innocent man from hanging?
