Summary
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....

Would be great as a play for a small theatre. Want to hear more from the author. Narrator was excellent.

As ever, a complete joy
I can’t even begin to imagine a Christmas without a St Mary’s short story! The combined delights of Jodi’s glorious writing and Zara’s masterful reading make everything perfect, even in today’s rather strange world!

A surprising treat!
Being unfamiliar with Jodi Taylor's work, I purchased this from an Audible sale and enjoyed it so much, I will happily spend future credits on more of this series. If you wish you could travel back in time to the Victorian era or be involved in an Agatha Christie-style murder mystery, this is the book for you, as it most definitely was for me!

Ultimately A Wonderful Yarn as Usual
Unusually for me, I found the start of this short story irritatingly slow going and sadly pondered that perhaps, finally, the author had run dry. (Sacrilege upon Sacrilege. Please forgive me, ma'am. )
Fortunately it picked up the pace, excitement and mystery ensued and it ended all too quickly.

Excellent
Brilliant as always and some lovely nods to previous stories.
Some lines that had me crying with laughter, especially the lap one...
Jodi as good as ever thankfully, a shining light in 2020. And Zara Ramm is always spectacular.

Love this series
I love this series, the stories are great and interesting. It holds your attention all the way through.
I also like the way it has a light side and doesn't take everything so seriously.
