How can a man who’s already dead be wanted for murder?
This is the question sports agent Myron Bolitar asks himself when two FBI agents visit him in New York. The man they are looking for is Myron’s former client and rival, Greg Downing. Greg’s DNA has been found at the scene of a high profile double-murder, and he is now the FBI’s main suspect. But Greg died three years previously, Myron says. He went to his funeral and gave the eulogy.
The FBI are disbelieving, and Myron knows he has to find some answers – and quickly. Could Greg Downing still be alive?
The more Myron and his close friend Win dig into what really happened, the more dangerous their world becomes . . .
Secrets, lies and a murderous conspiracy that stretches back into the past lie at the heart of Harlan Coben’s blistering new thriller.
"A war's on and a murder has been committed-and we sit here talking
nonsense about almond whirls and mince pies!" Good old Uncle
Willie-rich, truculent and seemingly propped up by his fierce
willpower alone-has come to stay with the Redpaths for the
holidays. It is just their luck for him to be found dead in the
snow on Boxing Day morning, dressed in his Santa Claus costume and
seemingly poisoned by something in the Christmas confectionery. As
the police flock to the house, Willie's descendants, past lovers
and distant relatives are drawn into a perplexing investigation to
find out how the old man met his fate, and who stands to gain by
such an unseasonable crime. First published in 1944, Murder After
Christmas is a lively riot of murder, mince pies and misdirection,
cleverly twisting the tropes of Golden Age detective fiction to
create a pacey, light-hearted package admirably suited for the
holiday season.
