TIS THE SEASON FOR MERRIMENT AND MYSTERIES.MISS AUSTEN INVESTIGATES A MURDER AT CHRISTMAS!A witty, heartwarming Christmas mystery - perfect for fans of Jane Austen and classic whodunnits`So sharply observed, yet fresh, funny and a joy to read' Jennie Godfrey
'Comforting and cosy... the perfect book to read for Jane Austen's upcoming 250th birthday' 5***** reader review-----I sincerely hope your Christmas may abound in the mysteries which the season generally brings. The festive season is fast approaching. Jane Austen fears that without her lively siblings at home, there won't be much Christmas cheer in the Austen household this year. But when she uncovers a skeleton in the cellar of Deane Parsonage, Jane soon forgets her woes. For who needs merriment, when there's a mystery to solve? Jane quickly learns of a missing young bride, who after fleeing her wedding breakfast, was never seen again. Locals have long believed she haunts the woods nearby. Could Jane have found her at last? Or does the truth of this mystery lie closer to home? Over the twelve days of Christmas, Jane will embark upon festive delights, making merry, and solving murders.-----Praise for Jessica Bull:`Witty, clever and with exquisite detail. Miss Austen is a terrific sleuth' Ian Moore`A fun, clever mystery' Good Housekeeping`A note-perfect crime caper' Red
