I love the early twentieth century setting and the way the stories include current events, attitudes, and basic everyday life. This current story is a shorter, feel-good Christmas story which is a quick read but doesn't disappoint. Molly spends the Christmas holiday at the home of one of her mother-in-laws well-heeled friends where she finds an old unsolved mystery. Molly's problem solving skills are top notch as always and because Molly is willing to take risks she is able to solve the mystery just like she always does! There are few characters present in this story. Sid and Gus show up in their usual roles as eccentric turn of the century single women who do whatever they want and Daniel remains the loving husband who must always be in charge. Bridie is the one character who breaks out of her previous role as passive young girl. When her father shows up and expects her to return to Ireland with him and his new wife she flatly refuses to go, stating that she wants to continue her education. Her father and new step mom laugh at her. She is 12 now and why does a girl require an education they ask? I found myself cheering her on as she stands her ground and refuses to back down so that her father decides to let her have her way and returns to Ireland without her. I really enjoy reading about how life was different. Molly returns from a trip and must start fires in the stoves and fireplaces then leaves while her home heats up. While on her trip an elderly women is found dead in bed on Christmas day. The family leave her there and do not call authorities until the to following day as it "would be unfair to bring them out today (on Christmas.).". Anybody else see the weirdness of celebrating Christmas while a corpse is lying in one of the bedrooms? This wouldn't happen today. But it makes for an interesting, enjoyable read. This is a wonderful series and I look forward to many more stories to come. So why only 4 1/2 stars? This is not really a full length story and I feel that at $11.99 the kindle price is too high. Previous full length stories are are also high at $9.99 are also somewhat high. Greed is never a good thing and people do notice. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ nice to see a Happy Christmas *by A***G on Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2017* It is coming up on Christmas and Molly is gloomy given the last year's events. The plan is that she and Liam stay with Mrs Sullivan who has been unwell and Daniel and Bridie will come join them for the holidays. But Mrs Sullivan is invited to a fancy home by an old friend and Molly then returns home hoping for time with Sid and Gus. The girls have plans to go away. Molly is once again thwarted when Daniel decides to accept his mother's invitation to join them at the stranger's home. All is not right there. Ten years ago the couple's daughter vanished into the snowy night. Molly wants to help because Molly. Sid and GUs are actually next door by coincidence. Oh and the vanished girl reappears on the doorstep on Christmas Eve. Is it really her or a criminal imposter? I had suspected the truth early on, but not the full measure of deception involved. Its nice to see a Happy Christmas and Daniel's overly annoying male shushing and her listening was minimal in this one. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Molly Murphy and the Ghost of Christmas Past by Rhys Bowen. *by K***D on Reviewed in the United States on December 15, 2018* I love anything by Rhys Bowen. She’s in the top three of my favorite authors. Through several change of plans for Christmas, reluctantly she goes with Daniel to a country mansion that is full of gloomy and scared people. Her mother-in-law is a childhood friend of one of the family. A tenuous connection for an invitation to Daniel and Molly. More mysteries appear and a long lost daughter returns home or does she? I don’t mind that Molly runs into her friends Gus and Syd everywhere she goes they always add spice and interest to the story. Two sidebars involving Daniel and Bridie add a little more suspense but of course is resolved at the end. I really can’t wait to read more about Molly and friends and further adventures at Patchin Place. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/49835857-the-ghost-of-christmas-past-a-molly-murphy-mystery-molly](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/49835857-the-ghost-of-christmas-past-a-molly-murphy-mystery-molly) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-27*
