Christmas Malice: An Inspector Abbs Mystery | John Bainbridge

so-so

This 2nd outing for insp. Abbs was disappointing.
He was staying at his sister's house for Christmas in a small Norfolk village where some strange events had been occuring including a sudden death. There was no real investigation just general enquiries being made while visiting friends. The Novella was filled with irrelevancies and was over complicated, spoiling what could have be an interesting story. (Now only available by Anne Bainbridge).
