An enjoyable and eclectic collection of short mysteries with a Christmas theme, from Golden Age and modern mystery writers. I particularly liked "Death in the Christmas Hour," a very unusual story about Christmas toys coming to life one hour each year. Yes, even toys can commit murder! If you enjoy reading mystery short stories, you probably will like this collection.
