Mystery for Christmas by Cynthia Manson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This a steady collection of Christmas stories that meets the title requirement more than other such collections I’ve read.
The reader of noir books will particularly like this set. This is decidedly a dark turn on the holiday. Wouldn’t expect less when John D. MacDonald is part of the authors. Lots of dead bodies and bloody turn of events…with Christmas cheer added in.
Bottom line: i recommend it. 7 out of ten points.
