Harry Is a Party to Murder

Private eye Harry Bittercress must catch a killer who strikes every Christmas, targeting members of one hapless family.

She’s a whiz at decryption, having studied at Bletchley Park, the British Government’s codebreaking headquarters. But can she unravel it in time? If not, someone in that family is doomed. Meanwhile, each of them frets, “Will I be next?”
