Publisher's Summary

The most chilling listen of the Christmas season.

As the snow begins to fall, the body count begins to climb…

DI James Walker is ready for a quiet family Christmas in the sleepy village of Kirkby Abbey.

But when he opens an early Christmas present left on his doorstep, he soon realises it is no gift. Inside is a gruesome surprise, and a promise – twelve days, twelve murders. Not long after, the first body is found, half frozen in the snow.

As the blizzards descend, panic spreads through the remote Cumbrian village – there’s a killer amongst them, and with eleven more victims to go, anyone could be next….

Can James stop the killer before they strike again?

The first in a new series, Alex Pine has written a dark, atmospheric crime novel, set in a snowed-in Cumbrian village, for fans of Val McDermid, Ross Greenwood and LJ Ross.

not the greatest

I had the killer pegged from their introduction and it ruined it for me. It was so obvious and they were such a strawman of a character.
It wasn't a terrible book, but it wasn't good. Thin characters, thin mystery, and writing that could use another edit. (The author used "the guy" a lot, and it seemed out of place and distracting, for a classical style village mystery.)

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
