Mistletoe, mulled wine... and murder? When a party turns fatal, Eve Mallow is on the case!
Arthur's Boatyard is a jewel in the crown of Saxford St Peter, a famous firm that's been fixing barges and boats for a hundred years. But their centenary celebration shows it's not all plain sailing... The owner, Anthony Mottram, seems to be at daggers drawn with half the village. So when he turns up dead in his own workshop, Eve Mallow knows she needs to chart her path carefully if she's to find his killer.
Accompanied by her stalwart sidekick, dachshund Gus, Eve sets out on decidedly choppy waters. Why did Anthony's sister send him to the boatyard the night he died? Where has his ex-girlfriend vanished to? And what is his best friend and business partner hiding?
With her only clues a scarf, a scrap of paper and the smell of perfume, Eve must navigate an ocean of suspects who all have reasons to lie. But when the next owner of the boatyard is murdered, she knows she's sailing close to the wind. Despite all the mince pies and the carol singing, someone is feeling far from festive. Can Eve make it through the storm and land her suspect, or will she be left dead in the water?
A completely charming and gripping English cozy mystery, perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, Emylia Hall and J.R. Ellis.
