A mysterious invite, a festive party, and a murderer hiding amongst the mistletoe.Christmas in England, 1936.When Ruby Dove receives a cryptic invitation to Lady Charlesworth’s swanky London soiree, Fina Aubrey-Havelock convinces her friend to attend. With journalist Pixley Hayford in tow, the trio is determined to have a smashing time and discover the face behind the missive. But they soon face a corpse instead.To clear Ruby’s name, they set off across the wintry English countryside in search of the miscreant. Will the snow halt the murderer in their tracks?If you love golden age detection with a dash of history, join our fashionable Oxford sleuth-spies in a delightful mystery romp through the 1930s. Ruby and Fina wager that you’ll never guess who did it.Previous Praise for Rose Donovan’s Mysteries:I can picture Miss Marple and Hercule Poirot nodding at Ms. Donovan and saying, 'Well done!' -- Laura Hartman, Reedsy ReviewsI’m the impatient sort, who’d jump to the end of a mystery to figure out who the killer is, and why -- but in this case, I found it a gripping read throughout, and I devoured the book in a single sitting. -- Hidden Gems Reviews 'I loved it. It took me right back in time to the era it is written.' -- Goodreads Reviewer'A perfect book to snuggle up with on a cold winter day.' -- Goodreads Reviewer'This story was good to the last page.'  -- Goodreads Reviewer 3
