Here’s the eighth of our Dead Good Christmas shorts – exclusive free short stories, lovingly crafted by some of our best selling crime and thriller authors – and our December gift exclusively for Dead Good fans.
This Christmas gift is from Will Carver, who burst on to the Crime Fiction Scene in 2011 with his debut novel ‘Girl 4’ and followed it up with ‘The Two’ in 2012.
This short story was later published in Mammoth Book of Best British Crime 11 (2014).
