It’s Christmas 1936, and Maybridge Castle prepares to reopen its crumbling halls in the frosty Cumbrian countryside. Guests arrive for a weekend stay — among them a doctor and his wife, a journalist, tarot readers, a grieving widower and his son, an academic, and an elderly amateur sleuth (and her cat). The setting promises festive warmth, but beneath the surface there’s tension, secrets, and unspoken rivalries.
As a game of “Murder in the Dark” is arranged to entertain the guests, the harmless evening soon becomes chillingly real. Sherries are poured, laughter echoes, and then comes a scream — someone dies, and suddenly the game is life or death.
No one knows who changed the rules. Could it be a guest, a staff member, or someone who watched from the shadows? As suspicion spreads, alliances shift and the façade of polite company fractures. In this festive mystery, Ada Moncrieff combines the coziness of a Christmas gathering with the sharp tension of a whodunit.
