Samenvatting:

It's Christmas at Westbury Manor and amateur detective Hugh Gaveston must unravel a fiendish mystery...

Christmas Eve, 1938.

Before the Christmas bells ring, someone at Westbury Manor will be dead.

It is 1938 and the Westbury family gathers at their country estate for another lavish Christmas. Champagne flows, fires burn low, and tradition dictates that nothing will disturb the holiday calm.

By morning, a man lies dead outside in the snow. A pistol rests beside him. Only one set of footprints leads to the body.

Death by suicide is the cause, but amateur sleuth Hugh Gaveston knows that something doesn’t seem right. As suspicion grows between guests and servants alike, hidden resentments and carefully guarded secrets start to surface.
