Murder at the Theatre Royale: The perfect murder mystery for Christmas 2022

Ada Moncrieff

Murder stalks a touring stage production of A Christmas Carol in this 1930s-set festive mystery.

It’s Christmas at London’s Theatre Royale and journalist Daphne King is determined to solve an extraordinary mystery…

December 1935. Director Monty Harrison’s production of A Christmas Carol has had a troubled run on its tour of regional theatres. With tensions amongst the cast running high, the company reach their final stop - London’s Theatre Royale.

Catastrophe, however, strikes on opening night- Scrooge dies on stage, the result (it is presumed) of a heart attack. But the show must go on. Until, that is, a leading theatre critic - and old rival of Monty’s - is killed backstage. Are those associated with the production being picked off one by one? Budding journalist Daphne King takes up the case…
