Publisher's summary

THIS CHRISTMAS, A KILLER TAKES FAMILY GAMES TO A MURDEROUS NEW LEVEL.

On 19th of December, renowned puzzle setter, loner and Christmas sceptic Edie O’Sullivan finds a hand-delivered present on her doorstep. Unwrapping it, she finds a jigsaw box and, inside, six jigsaw pieces. When fitted together, the pieces show part of a crime scene – blood-spattered black and white tiles and part of an outlined body. Included in the parcel is a message: ‘Four, maybe more, people will be dead by midnight on Christmas Eve, unless you can put all the pieces together and stop me.’ It’s signed, Rest In Pieces.

Edie contacts her nephew, DI Sean Brand-O’Sullivan, and together they work to solve the clues. But when a man is found near death with a jigsaw piece in his hand, Sean fears that Edie might be in danger and shuts her out of the investigation. As the body count rises, however, Edie knows that only she has the knowledge to put together the killer’s murderous puzzle.

Only by fitting all the pieces together will Edie be able to stop a killer – and finally lay her past to rest.

Popcorn in a snowstorm

Fun read during the holidays. Classic British mystery. Lots of plot twists. Curl up and just enjoy for what it is.

Cute, emotional, suspenseful!

The central character is endearing. The holiday whimsy is delightful. Yet, the author spared no effort in the suspense. Well done!

Politically Correct Dickens puzzle murder

It seems with many novels and tv shows it is important to be politically socially correct in writing about relationships. This does not take away from the mystery but does get tiresome. It is an ok puzzle.

Very Entertaining

I enjoyed this story. The main characters and puzzle motif were interesting. There was a fair mount of humor.

The Best Novel Yet!

I’ve enjoyed every book published so far but this one really hit the mark! It had the perfect blend of humor and suspense. I would mind seeing Aunt Edie delve into another Christmas mystery.

A great Christmas mystery

I have listened to all of the Christmas mysteries but this was my favorite. The character of Edie was a favorite. The narrator was the best.

I am hoping that there will be another story with this character.

I highly recommend this book.
