The Christmas Grudge (DCI Bone Scottish Crime Thrillers #10) Release Date: December 1, 2026

By TG Reid

Coming Soon

‘Tis the season to kill Santa.

The Christmas Grudge is a standalone festive crime novella featuring DCI Bone and the Rural Crime Unit — a perfect festive mystery for series fans and new readers alike.

When Father Christmas is found unconscious in the grotto at Campsie Estate House, battered with a giant nutcracker, DCI Bone and his team are landed with a case where nobody saw a thing and the only witnesses are a couple of elves and a sullen reindeer.

Mrs Claus has had it up to here with him. The sacked Santa wants his job back. And when the replacement Santa gets the same treatment, Bone realises someone isn’t after the man. They’re after the suit.

With 200 kids still expecting presents, someone has to put on the red suit and flush out the attacker.

Unfortunately for DS Mullens, that someone is him.

A festive, funny, and fiendishly plotted whodunit from the #1 bestselling DCI Bone Scottish Crime series — perfect for fans of Ian Rankin, Val McDermid, J.D. Kirk, and Stuart MacBride. The Christmas Grudge delivers everything readers love about the series — authentic policing, razor-sharp Scottish dialogue, and black humour with a genuinely dark edge.
