The royal family has gathered at their Scottish retreat, Balmoral Castle, for a traditional Christmas--and King Eric has given nearly all of the staff the day off. As a blizzard gathers outside and a delicious dinner is prepared, the family circles up for the traditional holiday toast. King Eric makes clear he has something momentous to say--in fact, he will name his chosen successor. But as he raises a glass of his favorite whiskey from a bottle that has just been sealed, he drops dead.
The King has been poisoned, only the royal family are present, and each one of them has opportunity and motive.
The only person at Balmoral who keeps his wits about him is the beloved head chef, Jonathan--an outsider in the eyes of the royal family, and one who is now hurled into the role of sleuth. In a state of shock, out of his depth, and possibly in a killer's crosshairs, Jonathan must confront a hopeless case. Why would one of the king's own family members want to kill him? And how did they do it?
The answers will shake the monarchy and the entire British Empire to its core.”
