The Ghost of Christmas Past (ebook)

Argumento de The Ghost of Christmas Past (ebook)

It's a Dickensian Christmas in Bath; frost lies thick on the ground and a white mist drifts through the narrow alleys. The Green River Hotel is hosting the very last office Christmas party of the season. The employees of the firm arrive and seem shell shocked that their miserly employer, frequently referred to as Scrooge, has paid for everything. How come the change of heart? They never get the chance to ask because old 'Scrooge' doesn't turn up for the party. A deadly deed has been done, and it's up to Honey Driver and her darling DCI Doherty to solve the Christmas caper.

'The kick-off to Goodhind's new mystery series - fast moving with a likeable
heroine and an impeccably rendered Bath background...'
Kirkus Reviews
(USA) on Something in the Blood

?The story is sparkling, full of wisdom and wit, wonderful irony, and tongue-in-cheek charm ? after reading the last page you will want to start all over again A detective novel in the best of (the) English tradition.?

'Sometimes it is the location alone makes you curious about a detective novel....Jean G Goodhind in her debut novel has added much more than that - a droll plot and a lot of British humour...'
