Description
Christmas at Fortescue Manor is always celebrated in style, with festivities that include ice skating, entertainment, and tobogganing. However, the highlight of the event is the annual Christmas Fayre, hosted by Lord and Lady Buckley-Phipps. But when a body is found in the spooky shell grotto in the manor house grounds, Lottie Sprigg's sleuthing skills are called upon. Locals have long said the grotto is cursed, but Lottie must separate fact from fiction to uncover the truth. As the body count rises, she must work quickly to identify the culprit before it's too late. With the festive atmosphere and the eerie grotto, the lines between reality and superstition become blurred. A mystery unfolds at Fortescue Manor, where the festive season meets a deadly twist. Can Lottie Sprigg solve the crime before the festivities end?
