When Jenna’s estranged father dies just before Christmas, she expects a quick trip to Cornwall to sign the paperwork, clear out his cottage, and return to London before the snow closes in. But the village of Lancarnick has other plans.

Stranded with missing luggage, an unwanted dog, and a cottage at the heart of a bitter local dispute, Jenna is soon drawn into questions about her father’s final days. His girlfriend says he meant to sell up. His neighbour insists he never would. Then a ghost appears with a warning - three Christmas Spirits are coming.

As the Spirits reveal buried secrets, painful memories, and motives for murder, Jenna begins to suspect her father’s death was no accident. But with Christmas fast approaching and the snow closing in, she must confront the past and solve a murder by Christmas or face the same bleak fate.

A witty, heart-warming festive mystery inspired by A Christmas Carol.
