Long Deathly Christmas (The Verity Long Mysteries, #7)

by Lynda Wilcox

Overview

Dragged off to spend Christmas in a rambling old house full of her new in-laws, amateur sleuth Verity Long is bored and isolated, but keen to make a good impression.

When Thor, the eight-year-old son of the house, tells her a fantastic tale, Verity thinks he's imagined it. But then, a mysterious woman is seen walking around the house on Christmas Eve, the family heirloom is stolen, and the children's tutor vanishes.

Verity's determination to solve the puzzle leads to a third disappearance. Now she must act fast, before something far more priceless than her relative's good opinion is lost to her - forever.

About the Author

Lynda Wilcox's first piece of published writing was a poem in the school magazine. In her twenties she wrote Pantomime scripts for Amateur Dramatic groups and was a founder member of The Facts of Life, a foursome who wrote and performed comedy sketches for radio. Now she concocts fantasy stories for older children (10-13) and writes funny whodunits for adults.
Lynda lives in a small town in England, in an untidy house with four ageing computers and her (equally ageing but very supportive) husband. She enjoys pottering in the garden where she grow brambles, bindweed and nettles along with roses and lilies. Oh! And slugs!  Slugs that feed well on everything but the brambles and weeds.
Most of all, she loves to write —  it gets her out of doing the housework. She also reads a lot and enjoys good food and wine.
