Product Description
Product Description
When a young woman is found dead in the snow, Richard Jury is convinced her death was not an accident. Delving into her background, Jury uncovers unlikely links between the local children's home, a run-down pub, the Jerusalem Inn, and a socially elite house-party in Spinney Abbey.
From the Publisher
A white Christmas couldn't make Newcastle any less dreary for Scotland Yard's Superintendent Richard Jury--until he met a beautiful woman in a snow-covered graveyard. Sensual, warm, and a bit mysterious, she could have put some life into his sagging holiday spirit. But the next time Jury saw her, she was cold--and dead. Melrose Plant. Jury's aristocratic sidekick wasn't faring much better. Snow bound at a stately mansion with a group of artists, critics, and idle-but-titled rich, he, too, encountered a lovely lady . . . or rather, stumbled over her corpse. What linked these two yuletide murders was a remote country pub where snooker, a Nativity scene, and an old secret would uncover a killer . . . or yet another death. "She is working in the great tradition . . . Good news for addicts--crime with style." -- Mary Cantwell, Vogue.
"[She] gets our immediate attention . . . . She holds it, however, with something more than mere suspense." --The New Yorker --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
