Perfect for fans of The White Lotus, Knives Out and anyone who’s ever wanted to strangle someone over Christmas lunch.
'A hugely entertaining festive murder mystery.’ Julie Lancaster, author of Don’t Forget Where You’ve Buried the Bodies
All Olivia wanted was one last miserable Christmas with her husband’s awful family before moving to Australia. She didn’t expect a murder.
Now the snow has cut them off and she’s stuck in a stately country house, with her increasingly deranged relatives and the rising suspicion that someone is picking them off one by one. As the bodies pile up and the festive façade starts to crack, Olivia must survive the season, or, at the very least, get through lunch without anyone else choking on a sprout. Sharp, smart and deliciously twisted, this is Christmas with all the trimmings: cold cuts, warm lies and at least one suspicious pudding.
– Readers are LOVING this one! 'Murder at Christmas has rarely been this tasty. A clever whodunit replete with nasty relatives, Christmas festivities and multiple murders piling up the bodies like so many toy soldiers. A lovely twist ending unwraps like a gift you’re hoping for.’ Bonnie MacBird, author of A Sherlock Holmes Adventure series
