The Twelve Murders of Christmas

The Twelve Murders of Christmas | Sarah Dunnakey

pick

A group of Edward Luddenham's nearest & dearest are invited to gather at his home on the North Yorkshire moors on the first anniversary of his mysterious death. All meals & accommodation have been paid for & they are to stay until Christmas Eve when his final Will will be read. For entertainment, each one has been instructed to tell a 'festive mystery story' over the week.

OutsmartYourShelf It soon becomes clear that before his death, Edward suspected that one of his friends or relatives was going to kill him & his murderer is amongst the guests this year.

Wow, this was something different! I absolutely loved working out the puzzles & the clues & some of them were real brain teasers & you'll definitely need to keep a pen & paper handy. 3h

OutsmartYourShelf The individual stories were also great & I actually managed to work out the guilty party before the final clue. Speaking of which, if I had a criticism it would be that I found the final clue a bit disappointing (a cypher type puzzle) whereas I don't know, I suppose I was expecting the clues collected to point to the killer Ć la Poirot. 4.5 š

My thanks to #NetGalley & publishers, Avon Books UK, for the opportunity to read an ARC. 3h
