Sinopsis

Ashley Smith, Studentin der Kunstgeschichte aus Sacramento, Kalifornien, wollte die Weihnachtstage während ihres Auslandsjahrs in London eigentlich allein verbringen. Erst die kurzfristige Einladung ihrer Kommilitonin Emma Chapman führt sie nach Starvewood Hall, dem Landsitz der Familie in Clevemoor in den Cotswolds. Ashley ist fasziniert von dem festlich geschmückten Herrenhaus, dem Feuer im Kamin, den vielen Gästen, dem guten Essen – und auch von Emmas attraktivem Bruder. Doch gegen Adam ermittelt die örtliche Polizei: Er soll ein Mädchen brutal ermordet haben. Außerdem treibt ein mysteriöser Fremder sein Unwesen in dem Wald zwischen Starvewood Hall und dem örtlichen Pub … Mehr als dreißig Jahre später werden die Ereignisse jener schrecklichen Festtage wieder aufgerollt: Was 1989 in einem kleinen englischen Dorf begann, findet viele Weihnachten später sein grausames Ende in New York.

    When Olive Wallace offers to take several friends and relatives on a once-in-a-lifetime bus tour through post-WWII Europe, they all jump at the chance—even though Olive can be petty, demanding, and judgmental. But do they really care about seeing the wonders of Europe—the magnificent Roman temples and the majesty of Carcassonne, an ancient, fortified city in southern France—or are they just trying to stay in Olive’s good graces? Olive Wallace, after all, is extremely wealthy. And she is extremely outspoken about who she intends to leave her money to—or not leave it to—when she dies. Olive changes her will on a whim, and every person on the trip knows it. On a bridge near Avignon, Olive is accidentally bumped into the river—or was she pushed? Days later, she is suspiciously nudged down the steps at the Nimes Colosseum. When Olive suffers a third accident in the narrow cobblestone streets of Carcassonne, she becomes convinced that somebody—one of her closest friends, perhaps—is out to murder her!

    He’s got a serial killer plotting his demise, CI Quinn on his case, and two crazed Pomeranians nipping at his heels … time for a nice round of golf then. 
     
    Naturally, there’s a body in the clubhouse just waiting to be discovered and with the list of suspects growing, Mike soon wishes he chosen a safer sport, like chainsaw juggling, perhaps. 
     
    General Trout had a fatal appointment with the business end of a nine iron and those around him all appear to have both motive and opportunity. Did they all really want him dead? No one seems in the least bit upset, except for the general himself, whose ghostly figure now haunts the greens every night as the sun sets over the eighteenth hole. 
     
    Will General Trout's spirit haunt the club until someone brings his killer to justice? Or are reports of these ghastly sightings a ruse to throw Mike Atwell off the scent?
