The fifteenth instalment in LJ Ross's globally bestselling DCI Ryan mystery series FROM THE #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF HOLY ISLAND Christmas can be murder... After a busy year fighting crime, DCI Ryan and his team of murder detectives are enjoying a festive season of goodwill, mulled wine and, in the case of DS Phillips, a stottie cake or two-that is, until a freak snowstorm forces their car off the main road and into the remote heart of Northumberland. Their Christmas spirit is soon tested when they're forced to find shelter inside England's most haunted castle, where they're the uninvited guests at a 'Candlelit Ghost Hunt'. It's all fun and games-until one of the guests is murdered. It seems no mortal hand could have committed the crime, so Ryan and co. must face the spectres living inside the castle walls to uncover the grisly truth, before another ghost joins their number... Murder and mystery are peppered with romance and humour in this fast-paced crime whodunnit set amidst the spectacular Northumbrian landscape. --------------------------------- PRAISE FOR LJ ROSS \"LJ Ross is the queen of Kindle\" - Sunday Telegraph \"She keeps company with the best mystery writers\" - The Times \"Holy Island is a blockbuster\" - Daily Express \"A literary phenomenon\" - Evening Chronicle
