About this ebook

A game of charades ends in coldblooded murder in this entertaining cozy mystery, third in the Crime with the Classics series.

Having finished transforming Windy Corner, the grand Victorian mansion she inherited from her great aunt, into a writers’ retreat, widowed literature professor Emily Cavanaugh is ready to receive her first set of guests. But her careful planning is thrown into disarray by the unexpected arrival of outrageous true-crime writer, Cruella Crime, whose unpardonably rude behaviour is causing great offence.

As a ferocious ice storm rages outside, the guests entertain one another with a game of charades. But their revelries are brought to a sudden halt by the discovery of a body in one of the guest bedrooms. When it transpires the victim was poisoned, Emily decides to take a leaf out of the book of her favourite detective writer, Agatha Christie, and investigate. But as she pursues her enquiries, it becomes chillingly clear that she herself may have been the intended victim...

    3/5
    Finally the renovations have been completed on the Victorian mansion that is Windy Corner. Now literature professor Emily Cavanaugh can organise her first writers' retreat over the Christmas and New Year period.
    But death is never far away, but who will be the victim and who the guilty party among all the suspects.
    An enjoyable enough cozy mystery though I could not take to the main character. Also some of the guests' characters seemed to be a bit over the top, and therefore obvious.
