Description
A hilarious prequel to the Inspector Pratt Trilogy, Sleighed to Death takes us back to the early days of England's most confused police officer. Christmas Eve in 1930s England is set for a night of merriment and mayhem at the manor house of Sir Walton Gates. However, when his daughter arrives with her new companion James Washington, and his estranged brother Archie returns from Australia, the evening descends into chaos. As Sergeant Pratt unwittingly stirs up tensions among the guests, magic tricks fail miserably, shots ring out, and identities become confused. Can Pratt identify the individual with murderous intent before a body is found? The story that started it all for Inspector Pratt is a sidesplitting tale of English gentility gone wrong. With its blend of humor and intrigue, Sleighed to Death offers a fresh look at the early life of England's most bemused policeman.
