A snow-covered cottage is nestled in the hills, all ready for Christmas...but inside a body lies dead upon the floor.

Melissa Craig is enjoying her first winter in the Cotswolds, taking brisk walks through the snowy fields and basking in the winter sunshine. The only thing Melissa is plotting is her Christmas shopping.

But after the unexpected death of local writer Leonora Jewell, Melissa is asked to complete Leonora’s final book. However, on her first visit to the cottage, she finds a gruesome object overlooked by the police: a metal bar covered with dried blood.

Terrified, Melissa rushes to the nearest telephone box to call the police. But by the time they reach Leonora’s cottage, the murder weapon has mysteriously vanished.

With no murder weapon, the detective in charge of the case scoffs at Melissa’s suspicions. Furious and frustrated, Melissa focuses on finishing Leonora’s novel. But as she reads Leonora’s notes for the book, she starts to wonder...did Leonora accidentally plot out her own murder?

As Melissa does some investigating of her own, she uncovers some pretty suspicious local characters. But with the police unwilling to help, can Melissa solve this vicious crime alone? By hook, by crook, or by the book, Melissa must find the killers before they strike again....

If you adore Faith Martin, Joy Ellis, and P. D. James, you’re in for a treat with this pause-resisting mystery novel!

This book was previously published as Deadly Legacy.

"A lovely, peaceful and funny cozy mystery novel...plenty of very good laugh-out-loud moments...reminded me of Agatha Raisin... I’ll be definitely in the search of other books from this author in future. A perfect cozy mystery!" (Licence to Read)

Too clipped English and refined. Unable to give character to these to characters in book

One of those cozies where you solved it and want to warn the protagonist. Very fun.

This is not my favorite book that she has written but it was good. Parts were slow but the plot was good and took some research I'm sure.

Not my favorite Rowlands book

The protagonist is an idiot. Fifteen words are required but it is not worth the effort.

Eye roll worthy

As always Melissa puts all of the clues together. I really like this series. I love the characters and the plot.

5 stars

much like the earlier books, uncomplicated but engaging. Mel Craig is essentially unchanged, which for this series is a good thing.

Easy entertaining story

I gave this four stars because compared to the first four books in the series, the setting was much less interesting and also, I was disappointed by Melissa‘s failure to notice obvious suspicious characters. Overall however, it was an enjoyable

Enjoyable!

The story was obvious from early on and the narrator stinks. Her intonations are so inappropriate for the characters in their situations and her upspeak intolerable.

The heroine is simple and annoying

Se ha producido un error. Vuelve a intentarlo dentro de unos minutos.

The reluctance of the heroine and the languid pace of the narrator made this piece a little tedious. I guessed the bad guy about 3 chapters before the end. I’ll wait a while before I get the next one.

Not as good as the others

I knew the crooks halfway through the book. How could Melissa Craig be so dense?

Melissa Craig - not smart
