A Christmas ghost story - Chronicles of St Mary's style! For fans of Doctor Who and Jasper Fforde...and A Christmas Carol.

Where better for the annual festive jump than the chance to experience a real Victorian Christmas?

On the longest night of 1895, a terrible storm rages above Harewood Hall. Max, Markham and an injured Peterson are welcomed in by the Harewood family but quickly realise that the gathering is far from celebratory. For tonight marks the Ordeal of the Haunted Room.

Every Harewood heir must endure one terrifying night alone in the Haunted Room before he can inherit the family seat. Legend says that ghosts will murder anyone who isn't the true heir.

Francis Harewood's ordeal will begin at midnight and end at dawn, but it isn't long before everything goes horribly wrong....

Great Short Story-- MUCH better than the regular books in the series. This one has none of the super repetitive plot devices that make the last eight books in the series tedious. This one is funny, engaging, and different.

Entertaining

As always the team of Taylor and Ramm deliver as perfect a story as you could ask for - combining humor with mystery, drama, and a touch of the supernatural. Ms. Taylor's writing almost never misses the mark, and Ms. Zamm is the best narrator I have had the pleasure of listening to. They both maintain a steady character development through all of the St. Mary's books and stories that make the individuals 'real' people as opposed to fictional and two-dimensional players.

A great Xmas Gift from Ms. Taylor and Ms. Ramm

St. Mary's does it again in its usual quirky fashion. A wonderful story with an exciting whodunit Agatha Christy style. A total delight.

I liked the nod to Agatha Christie and other classic mystery writers in this one. Love Zara Ramm.

Excellent as ever
