A holiday trip is actually a long journey for Peter to fulfill a promise he made to his dad and himself. He’s traveled across the globe to New Zealand to witness a comet he’s prepared his whole life for. It seems however, that fate has several obstacles in store for Peter, but luckily they also have thrown in Rangi, a friendly Maori local, to help him out and to possibly lend perspective to Peter’s life.

Way too short, this could’ve been great had there been more to it, as this story barely scratches the surface. The sweet and hopeful HFN left me wanting which I suppose is a testament to the setup and the disappointment of not having more.

Thank you to the author/publisher for a copy in exchange for a honest review

Good short christmas story, enough info to be complete but I would have loved an epilogue 35yrs later!!
Peter is the tourist out of place rescued by Rangi.
Loved the NX family, the maori traditions, christmas on the beach and the comet
Enjoyed
