I loved that mystery-solving angle and I enjoyed how the kids related to each other and to the parents/aunt and uncle. This would be a great family read for a wide range of ages.

“This was a lovely, sweet, Christmas novella! I enjoyed this so much! While short, it was the perfect length to read in an hour or so, the length took nothing away from the story. The mystery kept me guessing, and I quite loved the characters!”

“I thought I had the mystery of The Old Mansion’s Secret figured out more than once as I read through this Christmas novella. Nope. There was a terrific surprise ending—at least it surprised me—though looking back, there were a few clues. I enjoyed the energy of the kids in this book. They are analytical thinkers who track down every clue that they can while following the rules the adults give them. “

That was a nice little story. I teared up several times. I could just see the beautiful Christmas tree shinning on the snow. I’m hanging on to this one.
