圖書描述

A classic mystery for the festive season: mulled wine, mince pies...and murder.

Mordecai Tremaine, former tobacconist and perennial lover of romance novels, has been invited to spend Christmas in the sleepy village of Sherbroome at the country retreat of one Benedict Grame.

Arriving on Christmas Eve, he finds that the revelries are in full flow - but so too are tensions amongst the assortment of guests.

Midnight strikes and the party-goers discover that it's not just presents nestling under the tree...there's a dead body too. A dead body that bears a striking resemblance to Father Christmas.

With the snow falling and the suspicions flying, it's up to Mordecai to sniff out the culprit - and prevent someone else from getting murder for Christmas.

'Kept guessing to the end, I am left wondering why it has taken so long to discover Francis Duncan… With some 20 crime novels to his credit, a relaunch seems long overdue'

Daily Mail

'Who can resist a seasonal whodunnit? This is a bah-humbug’s ideal read'

Lady

'The book nods towards Agatha Christie but retains a crackling atmosphere of dread and horror that will chill the heart however warm your fireside'

Metro

'A wonderfully cosy read and a great way to while away a winter’s evening'

Nudge

'This is a golden age murder mystery that’ll certainly appeal to lovers of Agatha Christie – or anyone who enjoys a good, old-fashioned whodunit… This is a book that could be read at any time of year but would certainly make perfect festive reading. It has humour, excellent characterisation and a gentle tone that would sit well following the after-Queen’s Speech nap'

著者簡介

Francis Duncan is the pseudonym for William Underhill, who was born in 1918. He lived virtually all his life in Bristol and was a ‘scholarship boy’ boarder at Queen Elizabeth’s Hospital school. Due to family circumstances he was unable to go to university and started work in the Housing Department of Bristol City Council. Writing was always important to him and very early on he published articles in newspapers and magazines. His first detective story was published in 1936.

In 1938 he married Sylvia Henly. Although a conscientious objector, he served in the Royal Army Medical Corps in World W ar II, landing in France shortly after D-Day. After the war he trained as a teacher and spent the rest of his life in education, first as a primary school teacher and then as a lecturer in a college of further education. In the 1950s he studied for an external economics degree from London University. No mean feat with a family to support; his daughter, Kathryn, was born in 1943 and his son, Derek, in 1949.

Throughout much of this time he continued to write detective fiction from ‘sheer inner necessity’, but also to supplement a modest income. He enjoyed foreign travel, particularly to France, and took up golf on retirement. He died of a heart attack shortly after celebrating his fiftieth wedding anniversary in 1988.

前幾章節奏較慢,過程波瀾不驚。是有點像《Thou Shell of Death》那樣在一片平靜祥和之中突然引齣一起謀殺案的感覺。節奏也很像阿婆。整體三星半吧,主要我還是更喜歡那種有爆點的。簡介【https://www.douban.com/note/642778203/】

評分

四星半,非常精彩的作品。作者行文流暢自如,而且偵探角色非常討喜,屬於我喜歡的類型。動機非常難猜,反正我是沒猜齣來-應該說根本就沒有想到那塊去。有兩個小小的遺憾:1.結尾太倉促瞭,感覺再簡單交代交代就完美瞭;2.有幾點...的原因在最終解答時寫的過於模糊。總之,如果作者其他作品都有這部的水平,那一定要買來看看

動機有趣,整本書閱讀體驗很好,尤其是在聖誕節的氛圍下,感覺彆有一番風味,推薦

很精彩的古典本格推理。經典黃金時期設定:古老宅邸,聖誕節,聚集到一起的奇怪人們,各自心懷鬼胎等等(參照Thou Shell of Death),前麵稍微有點囉嗦,Plot很精彩很復雜,紅鯡魚和伏綫到處都是,最後全都收迴來瞭,解答過癮,動機設置很贊,缺點是解答完瞭嘎然而止,也沒有簡單交代一下人物結局。很適閤聖誕節看
