In number 3, Emily has a puzzle on her hands which she must solve within 15 minutes, save the stores Christmas display, and bring a child happiness. My review follows.
CHARACTERS, PLOTTING, DEVELOPMENT:
I found each tale complete unto itself, yet, each flowed into the next with characters we knew. Emily, something of an amateur detective, uses her powers of observation to solve the three mysteries we find in The London Stories. The plots were intriguing and held my attention. I must say my least favorite was, Three Sisters, however, it still held my attention and interest.
