‘Tis the season for murder in this seasonal locked room mystery.

Welcome to Mistletoe Manor Hotel. Four days before Christmas, twelve stranded strangers gather round a crackling fire... They are sheltering from the storm raging outside. But their relief is short-lived—as the snow deepens, the tree-lined avenue winding through the hotel's parkland becomes impassable. Their isolation is complete.

The next morning, a body is found in one of the luxurious four-poster beds. As twelve strangers become eleven suspects, who among them has checked in with murder in mind?

And will any of them live to see another Christmas...?

Murder at Mistletoe Manor in a snowed-in country hotel—and a killer with a grudge against the season of goodwill. What could be better?' Faith Martin

'A brilliant premise with thoroughly believable characters. A perfect contemporary whodunnit.' Ian Moore

'A festive mystery to read by the fire with a glass of mulled wine... brilliantly inventive... will keep you turning the pages well into the night. Loved it.' Catherine Cooper

'I loved it... a perfect festive read.' Andreina Cordani

'A twisty mystery that's festive, cosy, and chilling in equal measure.' JD Brinkworth

About the Author

Flic Everett lives in rural Scotland with her husband, two spaniels and one black cat, in a very small cottage between a forest and a loch. As well as being an author of fiction and non-fiction, including her cozy mystery series Edie York, Flic has experience working as a journalist, broadcaster, agony aunt, vintage shop owner and as a tarot reader. Flic's favourite things are reading, animals, very hot baths, cooking and buying clothes that are hopelessly unsuitable for her life. She also has a never-ending appetite for rummaging in charity shops.
