About this listen

It looks like a regular advent calendar. Until DC Becky Greene starts opening doors...and discovers a crime scene behind almost every one. The police hope it's a prank. Because if it isn't, a murderer has just surfaced - someone who's been killing for 20 years. But why now? And why has he sent it to this police station?

As the country relaxes into festive cheer, Greene and DS Eddie Carmine must race against time to catch the killer. Because there are four doors left, and four murders will fill them.... It's shaping up to be a deadly little Christmas.

the plot was okay - the Christmas approach was clever

Was The Deaths of December worth the listening time?

it was ok, the writing was average - good to listen to if you were doing other things, it did not need or keep your attention.

rather formulaic not really the cliffhanger that it could have been

Until yesterday, I incredibly, had not heard of Susi Holliday. Thanks to an old work, colleague, who, after a brief discussion about books, told me she was an old school friend of this fantastic author. Given that I have read nearly 1400 books, all crime thriller based, over the last three years. I am stunned that Audible had never offered this book to me as a suggestion. After reading this first book. I am hooked! What an incredibly well written book. Extremely gripping storyline. Believable characters. Natural flowing dialogue. Just an all-round. Awesome book! I cannot recommend this book highly enough. I am now, after reading this from start to finish in one go. About to commence book 2 of this trilogy. What a fantastic read! 

One of the best crime thrillers I’ve read in recent years.

I really enjoyed this book - the kind of macabre advent calendar that nobody wants to find. Intriguing story, some parts which were really tense and great narration. Loved the characters and hope that the series continues.

A great, not so festive Christmas tale
