Jerusalem Inn

About this book

A white Christmas couldnt make Newcastle any less dreary for Scotland Yards Superintendent Richard Jury--until he met a beautiful woman in a snow-covered graveyard. Sensual warm and a bit mysterious she could have put some life into his sagging holiday spirit. But the next time Jury saw her she was cold--and dead. Melrose Plant. Jurys aristocratic sidekick wasnt faring much better. Snow bound at a stately mansion with a group of artists critics and idle-but-titled rich he too encountered a lovely lady . . . or rather stumbled over her corpse. What linked these two yuletide murders was a remote country pub where snooker a Nativity scene and an old secret would uncover a killer . . . or yet another death.
