Snow, romance, murder - it's the most wonderful time of the year...Christmas 1919, Lord Arthur Cavendish has received a card saying, 'Happy Christmas, I've killed you'. When Lord Cavendish is found dead, Kit Aston, a WWI hero, Secret Intelligence Service spy and amateur sleuth, investigates.As the snow falls at Cavendish Hall, tensions rise for the isolated party guests when they realise one of them may be a killer. Past and present collide for Kit Aston as he attempts to uncover the truth in this classic murder mystery.The first Kit Aston Mystery is fizzing with romance and hilarious one liners yet captures the underlying sadness of a nation recovering from the impact of the Great War.What reviewers are saying about Jack Murray’s Kit Aston series:"...well written with very appealing characters, good plots and just a nice touch of romance. Very little overt violence and no sex."“A delightful return to the 'golden age' mysteries: gallantry displayed, love interest satisfied, red herrings all round…”This is the first in a series of historical mysteries. From the Downtonesque Christmas opener to the hard-boiled, cozy 'Frisco Falcon' and occult-themed 'Medium Murders', no two stories are alike but all are full of humour, twists, and real historical characters.Read more
