Об аудиокниге
'A hugely accomplished debut' EVA DOLAN
'A love letter to the classic country house murder mystery' J.M. HALL
'A fiendishly clever mystery as cunning as Christie' WILLIAM HUSSEY
A snowstorm. A country house. Old friends reunited.
It's going to be murder...
Torben Helle - art historian, Danish ex-pat and owner of several excellent Scandinavian jumpers - finds himself dragged to a remote snowbound Northumbrian mansion for a ten-year reunion with old university friends. At the dinner table their host, a reclusive and irritating tech entrepreneur, makes some shocking revelations. And when these are followed by an apparent suicide, the group faces a test of their wits... and their trust.
Snowed in and cut off, surrounded by enigmatic housekeepers and off-duty police inspectors, not to mention a peculiar last will and testament, suspicion and sarcasm quickly turn to panic. Kept afloat by strong drink and stronger women, Torben must draw upon the skills of his training and all the tricks of Golden Age detectives past. As the temperature drops and the tension mounts, it is up to him to work out how much money it would take to turn one of his old friends into a murderer - before someone else ends up dead.
This witty murder mystery puts a modern spin on the classic country house whodunnit. A must-read for fans of Agatha Christie, Richard Osman and Janice Hallett.
