Carols of Murder: A BRAND NEW addictive romantic Christmas cozy mystery, set in a Yorkshire village (The Thorndale Christmas Mysteries Series Book 1)
By Cait Byrne
A Christmas cottage. A village of secrets. A mystery sixty years in the making…
When Oxford academic Dr. Elinor March is blindsided by betrayal and academic scandal, she retreats to her late grandmother’s cottage in the idyllic Yorkshire village of Thorndale. Intent on licking her wounds in peace, Ellie soon discovers that her grandmother left behind more than heirlooms—she left a trail of clues tied to strange wartime disappearances and missing church artifacts.
Determined to uncover the truth, Ellie dives into decades-old secrets, aided—and sometimes obstructed—by Tom Ashworth, Thorndale’s brooding vicar with a tragic past and a knack for getting under her skin.
As snow blankets the village and the Christmas season takes over, Ellie must navigate nosy neighbors, local politics, and a growing attraction she didn’t ask for. But someone in Thorndale is desperate to keep the past buried—and they’ll do anything to stop her from uncovering it.
Carols of Murder is a romantic cozy mystery, perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, The Vicar of Dibley, and holiday stories with heart, wit, and a dash of danger.
