I love Christmas. And I love getting Christmas parcels. And I especially love getting Christmas parcels that contain books. And even more so when they're accompanied with all sorts of other goodies, including edible ones :-) Thank you very much, Deltic - very much appreciated!

A brilliantly intricate and intriguing mystery in the style of the Golden Age, with a murder during a weekend house party hosted by the Earl and Countess of Burford in Alderley. Many of the weird and wonderful guests/suspects are from the film world and most are not what they seem . . . Twists and turns and red herrings abound before the final reveal at the end . . . Wonderful!

The author wrote three investigations by Detective (Chief) Inspector Wilkins before his death in 2007: The Affair of the Bloodstained Egg Cosy that I devoured at the weekend, this one and The Affair of the Thirty-Nine Cufflinks which I've just downloaded to enjoy on the Kindle after I've savoured these complications for a while! Unfortunately there will be no more!

Thanks again, Deltic :-)

To my friend and neighbour blower who lent me the first book in the series, thank you very much :-) Enjoy!

From my friend and neighbour Nu-Knees.
I had passed on the first book. So it was good to get the next.

Loved this second mystery from James Anderson.
I have borrowed the third and last book from my son and now have read it as well.
Fun books not to be taken too seriously, just enjoy the twists and turns.
Agatha Christie on steroids!!!!
Book one passed to a friend. The next wo ready to go as well.

Ready to go to my Non Bookcrossing friend
