Let me preface this by saying that I love everything I've read (which is a lot) that was written by this author...and this short story was no exception. The characters were so well-developed that I kept thinking surely there had been preceding book that I missed (there's not!). And I agree with other reviewers...my only regret is that this wasn't longer b/c I really, really liked the two characters, particularly Pete. I hope Ms. Calmes revisits this and decides to do a sequel...there is a lot of opportunity to do so provided by the short story.And don't be put off by the fact the books is ostensibly a "Christmas" short story...the season has very little to do with the story; it's definitely a "read anytime" novelette.
