The Christmas Cracker Killer

The new fiendishly clever Christmas mystery from the bestselling author of Murder on the Christmas Express
Janice Hallett meets Agatha Christie in this deliciously dark and puzzle-packed festive murder mystery, perfect for fans of clever crime fiction.

IT'S THE MOST MURDEROUS TIME OF THE YEAR…

Puzzle compiler and former Christmas sceptic Edie O’Sullivan returns in the newest seasonal mystery from bestselling author and ‘Queen of the Christmas Mystery’ Alexandra Benedict.

When Edie O’Sullivan wins a two-day Christmas break in a hotel on a remote Scottish island, she’s looking forward to a picture-perfect Christmas full of winter walks, roaring fires, good books and even better whisky.

But when a guest dies under mysterious circumstances, Edie realises that there is a killer amongst them. As more guests begin to die, it's up to her to solve the strange riddles found in the victims’ Christmas crackers and stop the killing spree. But as she gets closer to the truth, she puts herself in the way of a devious and clever murderer.

Can Edie solve these Christmas killings before she becomes the next victim?
