The perfect Christmas gift has been revealed… And it’s a festive murder mystery with a twist. YOU solve the murder.
❄️ 🗡️ 🩸
12 murderous mysteries to read.
20 perplexing puzzles to solve.
1 mystifying murder to unravel…
Mastermind Puzzlemaster Sarah Dunnakey cordially invites you to crack the code of who killed Edward Luddenham.
🔎
It’s the first anniversary of the mysterious death of Edward Luddenham, found dead at his home on the Yorkshire moors one frosty Christmas Eve.
Now nine people gather at his manor house for the reading of the Will. Each has their own motivations for coming: curiosity, duty, unrequited love, desperation, greed.
They have been instructed to bring a “festive mystery story” to share.
But all you need is a pencil. ✎
Safe from the biting cold and the relentless snowfall outside, settle in with your favourite tipple in hand, as the storytelling begins.
Though you’ll need to keep your wits about you – for among those present is Edward’s killer…
Can you solve the puzzles and unmask the murderer before they strike again?

Under the winter stars, anything is possible…
Ezzie Wynter can’t wait for Christmas on the beautiful Isle of Skye. Her island home sparkles at this time of year thanks to the snow-capped mountains and frosty winter walks, topped off with family gatherings with those she loves the most.
But her peaceful Christmas idyll is upended when she hears that the Larson family – the owners of Rothach Hall – are flying in from Sweden for the festivities. As Manager of their grand Scottish manor house, Ezzie suddenly has decorations to hang, food to source and itineraries to organise.
Life only becomes more difficult when Mats Larson turns up. The owners’ handsome, self-assured son is used to doing things his own way – and he is only another headache to add to her overflowing list.
Yet when unexpected visitors arrive looking for Ezzie, nothing else matters as she is left questioning everything she ever knew about herself. But amidst the Christmas chaos, she might also discover that, when all is lost, it’s sometimes those we least expect who come to our aid…

It’s only five months to go until bloody Christmas…
And it’s finally time to reveal our hilarious festive murder mystery, Happy Bloody Christmas by Jo Middleton.
And you thought burning the turkey was the worst that could happen…
⭐
Christmas is all about lists. To do lists. Shopping lists. Lists to bloody Santa. And doesn’t Anna Johnson know it. Waking up on Christmas Eve after the annual Johnson party, she’s hungover, exhausted and sick of Christmas already. All she wants is to tick the last things off her endless list and sit down with the world’s biggest glass of wine.
But apparently that’s not going to happen any time soon because now her list looks like this:
❄️Wrap the presents
❄️Peel the potatoes
🩸Get rid of the dead body?!
A mysterious death in her home really is the last thing she has time for, but with police officers who could double as the Chuckle Brothers and a husband and two kids intent on watching Christmas films, it looks like it’s up to her to find out what the hell’s gone on. Oh – and figure out what to do with the body before her in-laws arrive.
Happy bloody Christmas indeed.

A note form @cltaylorauthor on the inspiration behind her new book #EveryMoveYouMake
My new psychological thriller, Every Move You Make, is very personal to me because, fifteen years ago, I was stalked.
My ex bombarded me with phone calls, emails, messages, and letters. He tried to hack my social media.
He turned up outside my flat and texted, I know you’re in there. I can hear you moving around. I moved out of my flat and changed the days I went into work.
He stopped stalking me after we threatened to report him to the police. But there are many stalkers who won’t stop.
If you, or someone you love, are being stalked please tell someone and the police. Advice:
