Murder For Christmas by Agatha Christie

On Christmas Eve, the aging Simeon Lee invites his family home for an old-fashioned holiday celebration. However, his motive for gathering his nearest and "dearest" around him is not in the true holiday spirit. That night, he is found murdered in his locked study. Hercule Poirot arrives to solve this "locked room mystery." Usual cast of suspects plus a stranger from abroad. Not the best story in the collection, but still a good read/puzzle. For another Christmas manor mystery, try Christmas is Murder: A Rex Graves Mystery, a novel by C.S. Challinor and seasonal mystery In the Dead of Winter (Ivy Towers Mystery Series #1) (Heartsong Presents Mysteries #3) by Nancy Mehl.

Great fun for the short story mystery lover!

I received this as a gift and it was great fun to read. It contains 26 short stories revolving around Xmas by some of the great writers such as Agatha Christie, Ngaio Marsh, Ellery Queen, Damon Runyan, etc. A great gift for the mystery lover!
