About this listen

Christmas has arrived in Cumbria, and wedding bells are ringing.
But an ice-cold killer is waiting in the fells…

As the clock strikes midnight on New Year’s Eve, DI James Walker receives a phone call that puts paid to his Christmas break. During the wedding of the year at a lakeside hotel, the bride’s sister has vanished.

When Rachel left the wedding breakfast before her speech, newly-wed Libby was furious. But as the night went on with no sign of her maid-of-honour, Libby started to realise something was very, very wrong…

Before the wedding night is out, the lake is being searched for a body.

Something old, something new. One guest is a killer. The question is: who?

The most chilling crime thriller you’ll read this winter, perfect for fans of Catherine Cooper’s The Chalet and Simon McCleave’s The Snowdonia Killings – and anyone who prefers their mince pies with a side of murder.

Another awesome instalment into DCI James Walker….kept me guessing until the end. Although in some aspects I should have suspected more…

I enjoyed this book, it was full of twists and turns. Finished with a huge shock.
Highly recommend listening if your considering.

Great read

Very slow to get started: It took the writer 8 chapters to establish that a body was found when the reader knew from the start of the book that this was going to happen. The narrative style was equally tedious, I stopped listening half way through chapter 8.

Disappointing reading
