BENEDICT ALEXANDRA THE CHRISTMAS JIGSAW MURDERS

***GIVE THE GIFT OF CHRISTMAS EARLY WITH THIS DELICIOUSLY DARK CHRISTMAS MYSTERY FOR FANS OF
CLEVER  PUZZLING CRIME. THE PERFECT STOCKING FILLER***   THIS CHRISTMAS  A KILLER TAKES FAMILY
GAMES TO A MURDEROUS NEW LEVEL.    On 19th of December  renowned puzzle setter  loner and
Christmas sceptic Edie O’Sullivan finds a hand-delivered present on her doorstep. Unwrapping it
she finds a jigsaw box and  inside  six jigsaw pieces. When fitted together  the pieces show
part of a crime scene – blood-spattered black and white tiles and part of an outlined body.
Included in the parcel is a message: ‘ Four  maybe more  people will be dead by midnight on
Christmas Eve  unless you can put all the pieces together and stop me.’ It’s signed  Rest In
Pieces. Edie contacts her nephew  DI Sean Brand-O’Sullivan  and together they work to solve the
clues. But when a man is found near death with a jigsaw piece in his hand  Sean fears that Edie
might be in danger and shuts her out of the investigation. As the body count rises  however 
Edie knows that only she has the knowledge to put together the killer’s murderous puzzle. Only
by fitting all the pieces together will Edie be able to stop a killer – and finally lay her
past to rest.   Praise for Alexandra Benedict’s Christmas mysteries: ' The perfect gift for
quizzers and mystery addicts . . .'  Val McDermid   ‘Whatever you unwrap for Christmas  you
had better hope it’s this book This is 21st-century cosy Christmas crime that doesn’t shy away
from the darkness’ Janice Hallett   ‘A thrilling journey from start to finish. Highly
recommended’ Elly Griffiths   ‘It’s wonderful! A page-turning homage to the Golden Age  with a
dash of Poirot and a dark  modern heart’ S J Bennett
