Beschreibung

Curl up with this cosy festive murder mystery.

It's the most wonderful time of the year... for murder. Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, Rev Richard Coles and other locked-room mysteries.


A SCHOOL REUNION... A CHRISTMAS PARTY TO DIE FOR.

December 1937. Daphne King is attending the twentieth anniversary reunion at her secondary school, Midwinter Academy, a weekend that will see resurrected rivalries and alliances amidst the Christmas festivities. But a string of peculiar incidents prompts Daphne to suspect that she and her friends are being sent messages - or threats - related to the disappearance of a classmate twenty years ago.

It was a mystery which clouded their final year at the school - and one which Daphne, as a budding eighteen-year-old sleuth, solved.

When, the morning after the reunion, one of Daphne's old school friends is found dead, Daphne finds herself in the role of investigator once more. Are the two cases linked? And has Daphne learned from the mistakes of her past?
