Description
As the snow falls, the haunting begins... Get ready for the most gripping cosy murder mystery debut of the year.
'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?

Older lesbian female autistic-coded main character. I was definitely on board for this one. The narration is a bit tedious at times, but that's more to do with Midge's character. What I am not there for is the short-sighed imagination of queer lives being only deserving of tragedy, particuarly by straight (this is an educated guess going by the author's bio) authors. Come on, I thought we were past this.
This could have been such a great opener for a series. Maybe it will still be one, who knows.
