Synopsis Helle and Death by : Oskar Jensen

'A glorious debut' - SUNDAY EXPRESS 'An affectionate homage to classic murder mysteries' - DAILY MAIL 'Recommended reading for a long winter night' - GUARDIAN A snowstorm. A country house. Old friends reunited. It's going to be murder... Torben Helle - art historian, Danish expat and owner of several excellent Scandinavian jumpers - has been dragged to a remote Northumbrian mansion for a ten-year reunion with old university friends. But when some shocking revelations from their host, a reclusive and irritating tech entrepreneur, are followed by an apparent suicide, the group faces a test of their wits... and their trust. Surrounded by enigmatic housekeepers and off-duty police inspectors, suspicion and sarcasm quickly turn to panic. Only by drawing upon all the tricks of Golden Age detectives past will Torben be able to solve the mystery: how much money would it take to turn one of his old friends into a murderer? But he'd better be quick, or someone else might end up dead... This witty murder mystery puts a modern spin on the classic country house whodunnit. A must-read for fans of Agatha Christie, Richard Osman and Janice Hallett. 'A witty repurposing of the Golden Age country house' - FINANCIAL TIMES 'An entertaining whodunnit in the classic Christie style' - MAIL ON SUNDAY 'A glorious feat that intrigues, surprises and delights' - JANICE HALLETT 'A love letter to the classic country house murder mystery' - J.M.
