A Very Murderous Christmas
A Very Murderous Christmas | Profile Books
5 posts | 3 read | 3 to read
The Christmas season is one of comfort and joy, sparkling lights and steam rising from cups of mulled wine at frosty carol services. A season of goodwill to all men, as families and friends come together to forget their differences and celebrate the year together.Unless, of course, you happen to be harbouring a grudge. Or hiding a guilty secret. Or you want something so much you just have to have it - whatever the cost. In A Very Murderous Christmas, ten of the best classic crime writers come together to unleash festive havoc, with murder, mayhem and twists aplenty.Following Murder on Christmas Eve and Murder under the Christmas Tree, this is the perfect accompaniment to a mince pie and a roaring fire. Just make sure you're really, truly alone ...

I enjoyed the Horowitz and Rendell ones the best.

The stories vary in length and crime but all a fascinating read. I particularly liked the last one and had fun trying to figure out one of them as it gives the reader a chance to solve it first. 4* 10 short stories so 260pts plus 30 pts for #festiveflicks 291 pts
