A relatively new voice in the suspense genre, C.C. Warrens writing grabbed me from the first paragraph and has not let go! She deals with some tough subjects about the streets of New York but also shows the topics of faith and forgiveness and spiritual growth.
This novella will not make sense unless you have read the Holly Cross books or the Seeking Justice books.
All
the characters you love are back and you get to meet Marx’s mom and
Dad! Marx is hoping to show Holly a real family Christmas but will it
even be civil when he and his dad don’t get along? Who knows what
mischief Holly will get into and will she be able to charm Marx’s
parents? Trouble seems to meet them in the form of neighborhood punks
when they arrive at Marx’s boyhood home. Can they figure out who is
behind the vandalism? Will old wounds be healed and old mysteries come
to light? Will this truly be a family Christmas?
I
especially liked the interaction between Holly and Gus Marx. And the
ending back in New York was just a pretty bow on a gorgeous package! I
am looking forward to reading more stories about Holly and her friends.

This novella is a Seeking Justice Christmas novella that falls between "Injustice for All" and "Imperfect Justice."
