It was fast paced and very well written. I didn’t want it to end. Was so disappointed when it can’t to an end . Will definitely be looking out for the author again

I received this book from NetGalley and the publishers and as a lover of everything Christmas related I was excited to try a Christmas thriller and wow I was not disappointed! For those who rely heavily on those terrifying and grotesque corpses showing up one after another to get through a crime novel, you may find this one doesn't satisfy those needs. Yet, if there is a desire to seek out a different perspective on crime and serial killers with an emphasis on the "whodunnit," then this is going to be one hell of a ride. With each murder James and Annie learn more about each victim's life, and how intertwined with each they were - this reminded me of the Miss Marple books. Not too much gore and it wasn’t too scary. I’m a wimp and was glad to be able to sleep soundly after finishing this one! The case was very complex and constantly had me changing my mind throughout. I did guess the perpetrator very early on, but all the different lines of enquiry and different twists as more secrets were revealed had me keep changing my mind and then returning to my original thoughts.

The main storyline set in Cumbria was a really good whodunnit. It was not a gory novel but focussed more on the characters and clues which I really enjoyed. All the characters and scenes were really well written.This was a fantastic storyline that gripped me throughout. I loved the association with Christmas and the recognisable theme of The Twelve Days of Christmas. Annie and James are a young couple who re-locate to a village in Cumbria, Annie's family home, to get away from the "bright lights of London" and a criminal who James, a police inspector, had put away. Little do they know that days before Christmas, a serial killer is "on the loose" in the Cumbrian village, but who is the killer and why "the twelve days of Christmas?" Look at the poster to see a purple 7. Open the dumpster to get a rope, and rip open a garbage bag to get some shoes. My only critique is the professionalism and procedures of the investigation. It all seemed to be informal, based on visiting peoples homes. I wonder if the reality would be quite the same or would these interviews would have made more of an impact in a police station with lawyers. DI James Walker and his wife, Annie, have just relocated to quiet Kirkby Abbey from bustling London seven weeks ago. Intending to escape the job-related anxiety, Walker discovers that in even the quietest of locations at the happiest time of the year, evil continues to percolate.

Go downstairs. Put all the telescope pieces together and look outside. Find four signs and take note of them. I’m trying to play on a Samsung phone and I want to turn off the sound. It’s there a way to do that? Obtain the Orange File Folder from the table and leave the room after investigating Dan. Head to the office and open the drawer to discover other files. Firstly, discover a Used Coffee Cup on the table and tap on it to collect. Next, obtain the file where the cup was kept. Before leaving the table, don’t forget to get the Wrapper. After reading and reviewing the teaser courtesy of the publishers and netgalley I was excited and eager to read and review the whole book.

As with any good crime thriller, I had several suspects in my head and these kept changing with each twist of the plot. Maybe it’s because I am a complete Christmas Elf myself, but there is something about the atmosphere of an English Christmas that always appeals to me, and to me, Alex Pine captured the atmosphere of an English village at Christmastime beautifully. Granted, the language was sometimes a little bit stilted – I honestly don’t think people speak quite as formally as Pine’s characters do – but the book read easily and I zoomed through it, finding it an easy and engaging read all round. I really enjoyed this book. It was a nice easy read and I feel instantly comfortable with the writing and the characters. . But I wanted to know more and who was the killer, so I had to keep reading until I finished in one setting. , It did keep me guessing with all the twists and turns.

Now you have to ply a Minesweeper game. Figure out where the faulty chips (mines) are based on the numbers. Then select the faulty ones with red and the good ones white. The Christmas Killer tells the story of DI James Walker and his wife, who have left the stresses of life in the Metropolitan Police. Threats linked to a previous case of DI Walker's persuades him to move to the sleepy village of Kirkby Abbey in Cumbria, his wife's childhood home. They are soon to discover that Kirkby Abbey has many deep and dark secrets - and there is a killer on the loose who is set on taking the lives of the holders of those secrets. A cat and mouse game is on with DI Walker who is taunted by the killer's use of Christmas cards to hint at what is to come. I really enjoyed this book, there is all my favourite things from a thriller / police procedural. The creepy setting, the threat of it being closed off and the small community where everyone has a secret or two to hide. While I did think some parts were a bit obvious, it still left me guessing and I got a few things wrong! I do wish the ending hadnt been so rushed, I was at about 90% and I dont think the last 10% wsas enough time to fully wrap it up in a satisfying way, but if this book is going to be part of a series I am already eager to read the next one! This story is twisty and suspenseful, and there’s never a dull moment to be found. There are many suspects to be suspicious of, and I was constantly on the edge of my seat in anticipation, trying to figure out who the actual killer is. There are so many clues to be found throughout the story, but they are cleverly hidden by the author, like a craftily wrapped Christmas present, purposefully wrapped in a way that's meant to deceive.

The Christmas Killer by Alex Pine. A police procedural with an intriguing mystery occuring during the holiday season. Really wouldn't want to receive one of the 12 Days of Christmas cards. Solid crime solving in the first of a new series featuring DI James Waller. Do you mean nothing happens after you complete the first fingerprint? I had that problem the first time I did it, but restarting the chapter fixed it. Can’t seem to figure out the key board and the chandelier tryed everything I can but nothing can you help please. Excellent book thank you Netgalley and the publisher for this copy in exchange for an honest review.
