The murder of Father Christmas in the grotto of London's busiest toy shop is just one of many Yuletide disasters in this new collection of short stories from the Golden Age of crime writing and beyond. Martin Edwards has curated a special collection with something for every reader of mystery and detective fiction, including classic offerings from masters of the genre such as John Dickson Carr, Michael Gilbert and Ellis Peters alongside gems from the 1980s and 1990s by Patricia Moyes and Catherine Aird.

Presenting fifteen stories of festive fraud, poisoned pies and cold comeuppances, this anthology parcels up a quintessentially perilous classic-crime Christmas - and offers the answer to the question burning like a fire in the Who Killed Father Christmas?
