About this listen
'This should be on every crime reader’s Christmas wish list’ CHRIS WHITAKER, bestselling author of We Begin at the End
*THIS WINTER'S MOST CHILLING KINDLE TOP 20 AND AUDIBLE TOP 10 BESTSELLER*
*
In the picturesque village of Kibblesworth, DI Tom Stonem is dreaming of a quiet Christmas alone.
But in the shadow of the Angel of the North, a body lies waiting. The dead man is posed with a child’s Christmas list in his pocket, and the first mysterious item – 1. No angel – is crossed off.
When a second body is found – a woman, stabbed in the abdomen after her work Christmas do – Stonem is convinced there’s a grim connection between the crime scenes and the seemingly innocent list. 2. Red partee dress. Could this be a murderer’s twisted code?
As a blizzard rages in the Tyne & Wear countryside, the body count is snowballing. Can Stonem stop the killer before they get everyone on their Christmas list?
An anti-cosy Christmas crime novel for fans of The Killer in the Snow and One by One.

Never saw the twist at the end
Interesting set of characters.
Various storylines added intrigue , believable characters.
Storyline with various sub stories provided an interesting view to the usual murder/detective stories with very little waffle.
Would listen to the next on the series if it was to be written.

Wow - twist in the Tail end of this tale
I saw all the rave reviews for this book and kept thinking why? It was ok, the narration is good - apart from a couple of mispronunciations - e.g. ethereal, - but wait till the end! I’ve just finished listening and still smiling at the ingeniousness of this story!

Good concept
The narration was okay but not to my liking. The plot was interesting but I found it too easy to identify the murderer and reasoning behind the killing spree.

Fantastic - unexpected twist, keeps you guessing
Bought this as it was Christmas and I wanted a good listen during the post Christmas clear up. Did not disappoint, I listened compulsively for 6 hours straight before my bed called me. Finished it the next day. Excellent with building the characters, weaving a back story, and coming in with twists and turns before hitting you with a final plot twist. Nicely tied up and left open for more of this character…. Only question is when’s the next one out?
