It is Christmas 1923 and a Saint is found dead, murdered, and the killer is from within Temple House itself.

And so their keeper of the books - the Dead Reckoner - suggests they call in Major Heathcliff Lennox and ex-Inspector Jonathan Swift to uncover the killer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMajor Heathcliff Lennox - ex WW1 war pilot, 6feet 3inch, tousled dark blond hair, age around 30 - named after the hero of Wuthering Heights by his romantically minded mother - much to his great annoyance.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-12864781\"\u003eKaren Baugh Menuhin\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Little Dog Publishing Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/10\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 302\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.25w x 0.63d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781739332334\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1739332334\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC022060\"\u003eMystery \u0026amp; Detective | Historical\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Little Dog Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48457019949293,"sku":"9781739332334","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/files\/img_21ae4683-6d4e-483e-8119-6c368458cc24.jpg?v=1753575277","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/es\/products\/the-twelve-saints-of-christmas-9781739332334","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
