Description
❄ As the snow falls, the haunting begins... Get ready for the most gripping cosy murder mystery debut of the year. ❄
'Witty, chilling and full of charm… a perfect seasonal mystery.' My Weekly
'A delightfully engaging debut, starring one of the most amusing and unusual sleuths I’ve come across. Best enjoyed with a nice glass of sherry!' Tess Gerritsen
A grand country estate.
On her last day as a Detective, Midge McGowan is given the retirement present from hell: a ticket to take part in a haunted house tour. She’ll have to spend the weekend before Christmas ghost-hunting in an isolated mansion with a group of misfits, including a know-it-all paranormal investigator and a has-been pop star.
An impossible crime.
It isn’t long before the tour starts to spiral out of control. Midge and the guests see an unsettling figure walking the grounds late at night. Then the unthinkable happens – someone is murdered in a room that’s been locked from the inside.
A Christmas they might not survive.
Heavy snow cuts them off from help, the house’s own dark secrets begin to surface, and Midge can’t shake the creeping sense that they are walking into a nightmare. Could a ghost really be responsible, or is the culprit one of the guests?

This cosy mystery is an engaging read.
I was hooked from the first page and really enjoyed my reading time. I love a locked room mystery and this is a tale that is gripping and fascinating.
It is a ghost story with a difference and one that I would love to see as a tv drama. It's fun, unusual and very mysterious.
The characters and the plot is well-written and it really is a satisfying story.
