Flora's Cotswold Christmas Mystery
(2025)(The second book in the Flora Farrington Mystery series)
A novel by Anna Armstrong
A festive murder, a fearless sleuth, and a Christmas no one will forget…
It’s December 1924, and when the Honourable Flora Farrington hears of the untimely death of her old schoolfriend Maud, she smells something suspicious—and it’s not the Christmas pudding.
With her usual flair for investigation (and an eye on the ever-dashing Inspector Busby), Flora throws herself into the mystery—helped along by her old Nanny and the ever-faithful dachshund, Dorothy.The quiet Cotswold village is anything but peaceful: a war-scarred doctor, a capable nurse, ambitious social climbers and missing morphine all muddy the festive waters. When Flora’s fearless daughter Debo ends up in danger, the case turns chilling in more ways than one. From Christmas shopping in Oxford to a dramatic chase through the frosty countryside, Flora finds herself uncovering secrets far darker than she imagined—as sparks begin to fly between her and Busby.
Will Flora solve the case before the bells ring—or will Christmas bring one final, deadly twisty?
Perfect for fans of classic Golden Age mysteries, sparkling heroines, and a touch of romance, this festive whodunit will keep you turning pages long past midnight.
