ALAN BRADLEY, AUTHOR OF THE MOST AWARD-WINNING SERIES DEBUT OF ANY YEAR, RETURNS WITH ANOTHER IRRESISTIBLE FLAVIA DE LUCE NOVEL.
?[Alan] Bradley has created one of the most original, charming, devilishly creative and hilarious detectives of any age or any time.??Bookreporter
It?s Christmastime, and Flavia de Luce?an eleven-year-old sleuth with a passion for chemistry?is tucked away in her laboratory, whipping up a concoction to ensnare Saint Nick. But she is soon distracted when a film crew arrives at Buckshaw, the de Luces? decaying English estate, to shoot a movie starring the famed Phyllis Wyvern. Amid a raging blizzard, the entire village of Bishop?s Lacey gathers at Buckshaw to watch Wyvern perform, yet nobody is prepared for the evening?s shocking conclusion: a body found strangled to death with a length of film. But who among the assembled guests would stage such a chilling scene? As the storm worsens and the list of suspects grows, Flavia must ferret out a killer hidden in plain sight.
?[Flavia is] the most intrepid and charming adolescent chemist/detective/busybody in all of rural, post?World War II England.??The Seattle Times
