During the Christmas rush, teacher and poodle-owner Melanie Travis is in need of some well-earned rest. Unfortunately, her brother and ex-husband don’t make this easy on her, as they make a spontaneous bid on an old pine tree farm, which needs a lot of care and refurbishing. Even worse, one cold day on the farm, Melanie and her family find a purebred Maltese whimpering in the snow… accompanied by the corpse of a man. How did this man die, and who is the killer? And who can Melanie trust? This exciting Christmas whodunit is a great book to curl up with at any time of the year, and is one that is sure to keep you on your toes!
