Christmas can be deadly…

After a long year of crime-fighting, DCI Ryan and his team are looking forward to a peaceful Christmas filled with festive treats – including the occasional turkey stottie, or three. To celebrate a job well done, the entire team are treated to a party at beautiful Belsay Hall, a spectacular country estate on the outskirts of the city. But, when their dinner is interrupted by the untimely arrival of a dead body, they’re reminded that crime never sleeps – and nor do the secrets within the walls of Belsay.

It's time to find out who’s been naughty or nice…

Murder and mystery are peppered with romance and humour in this fast-paced crime whodunnit, set amidst the spectacular Northumbrian landscape.

One of my favourite series! My only complaint is tgat I can't put it down and finish it within a couple of days. This one was particularly short.
A gripping story from beginning to end. Loveable characters, brought to like by superb narration. Ended on a fantastic cliff hanger. Kept me guessing throughout. Always full of emotions. Absolutely loved it.

Outstanding!

Intriguing from the beginning to the end. I am addicted to the narrator, clear and pleasant to listen to even with Phillip, Ana and the others accent. I hope LJ Ross doesn’t keep us waiting for too long to know about Ana, Ryan’s wife.

Brilliant as ever

Not sure how I felt about this story… a new departure with a 2 story theme and then the cliff hanger - is this just another chance to sell you into the NCT book - a little disappointed…

Another cliff hanger…
