Twelve Drummers Drumming: A Father Christmas Mystery

Twelve Drummers Drumming: A Father Christmas Mystery

Father Tom Christmas moves to the picturesque English hamlet of Thornford Regis to become its new vicar and to seek a peaceful haven. But inside the empty village hall, the huge Japanese o-daiko drum thatâ€™s featured in the May Fayre festivities has been viciously sliced openâ€”and curled up inside is the bludgeoned body of Sybella Parry, the daughter of the choir director. Realizing this village is not the refuge heâ€™d hoped for, Father Tom comes to a disturbing conclusion: Sybellaâ€™s killer must be one of his parishioners. No one is above suspicionâ€”not Sebastian John, the deeply reserved verger, nor Mitsuko Drewe, a local artist, nor Colonel Northmore, survivor of a World War II prison camp. And over all hangs the long-unsolved mystery of a sudden disappearance, one that brought Father Tom to this picture-perfect place to liveâ€”or die.

BONUS: This edition includes an excerpt from C. C. Benison's Eleven Pipers Piping.
