Fleur Hitchcock is the queen of middlegrade murder, and Murder at Wintertide is another fantastic crime thriller!
George and Isla are celebrating Christmas by the sea with their families, until a body washes up on the beach. George is convinced he has seen a clue, and is determined to investigate. But as they get closer to the truth, the danger rises. And the killer might be closer than they think…
Writing murder mysteries for middlegrade readers (9-12) is a tricky business, but Fleur really knows her craft and she manages to balance the mystery with the moral, and the seriousness of the situation with the twists of a good detective story. Great stuff!
