The Twelve Days of Murder

Twelve years ago, eight friends ran an exclusive group at The Masquerade Murder Society. The mysteries they solved may have been grisly, and brilliantly staged, but they were always fictional—until their final Christmas Masquerade, when one of the group disappeared, never to be seen again.

Now THIS is a book I want to read at this time of year!

This is the total opposite to a cosy crime/rom com style plot but I am here for it! Fresh and unique and a bit cheeky. this was a whole lot of fun. It seems like a simple premise, one you think you’ve read before but NO! This is like a murder mystery experience in a book.

A group of friends from university once set up a society around murder mysteries. All harmless fun until one of their group goes missing. Years later, they clearly haven’t learned from past mistakes as they decide to form the group again and have a Christmas gathering.

This time, they’re older and have things they want to keep secret so you know this is going to be fun. On top of this, there’s that disappearance to address. So, a good idea to effectively return to the crime!

You just know something is going to happen. It’s a great premise for a locked room mystery and the author really evokes the setting well. It’s suspenseful and the sense of foreboding is just delicious!

The cast of characters is brilliant, the scene setting a joy and the writing fresh and fun. Perfect reading experience right there!
