10.31.2023 - The Christmas Appeal

The Christmas Appeal by Janice Hallett 

Many thanks to NetGalley and Atria Books for gifting me a digital ARC of the Christmas follow-up to The Appeal by Janice Hallett - 5 stars once again!

Two lawyers are once again tasked by their retired professor to investigate an incident involving a local community theater group, The Fairway Players, as they prepare their Christmas production of Jack & the Beanstalk to raise money for the church roof.

I absolutely adored both of these books and am anxiously hoping there will be more to come!  The story once again unfolds strictly through texts, social media posts, letters, and police transcripts - and not all in chronological order.  The lawyers and readers are tasked with figuring out what's going on.  And there's a lot going on!  New cochairs of the theater group are quite controlling and the previous people in charge definitely aren't happy.  There's plenty of gossip, shenanigans, and possibly a dead body in the mix!  So creative and fun - highly recommended!
