It's beginning to look a lot like murder…

Christmas is cancelled. After spending the last two discovering bodies and unmasking killers, Anna has officially banned all things festive. No turkey, no tinsel, no forced merriment of any kind. Just one tiny thing first – survive a weekend volunteering at her daughter's school Seasonal Community Gathering. And woe betide anyone who calls it a Christmas Fair.

But when Anna and her best mate Jennie discover one of the committee dead, suddenly keeping the tombola gluten free is the least of their worries.

The police are calling it an accident. Anna is calling it suspicious. Off-brand bunting, a locked office and far too many people with grudges – something doesn't add up. Anna and Jennie set out to catch the culprit and end up knee-deep in tinsel, tea urns and PTA politics, untangling a web of petty vendettas that would make Santa hand in his notice…
