The cosy mystery, perfect to escape with this Christmas, from the No.1 New York Times bestselling author of Murder at Holly House.

This Christmas, even the clergy can't be trusted...

It’s Christmas Day 1954 and Frank Grasby’s father is getting married at Rowantree Hall. To make matters worse, Frank is best man.

Various clergymen and Frank’s boss, Superintendent Arthur Juggers gather for the celebration. Guests line the chapel as the bride glides down the aisle. The blizzard whirls outside, cutting them off from the rest of the world as Reverend Welling steps into the pulpit. He starts to speak and stutters – then falls. The horrified guests rush to his side, but Welling is already dead. Poisoned by mistletoe.

As Juggers and Grasby investigate, they discover dark secrets in this hallowed hall. Time is running out to save the wedding. Where do you turn for help, when even the clergy can’t be trusted?

Critic reviews

This book is so much fun, and packed with delights. No one did character quite as well as Denzil, and Ian Moore has done an absolutely terrific job, honouring the humour, the humanity and the tradition of madcap escapades in completing this final work. I loved it.
Denzil’s talent is unquestionable, but his versatility is underrated. One of the greats.
Ian Moore has done a wonderful job in capturing not just Denzil's style when writing Grasby, but also the spirit of the piece. It's all here, the humour, the emotion, the cricket...
The perfect yuletide mystery blending an intricate plot, memorable characters, and genuine laugh-out-loud humour.
Another hilarious outing for DI Grasby in the series. Love the post-war setting… It was great to spend time once again with Frank Grasby and Juggers.
