Murder for Christmas by Francis Duncan
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Amateur criminologist Mordecai Tremaine has been invited to a country house Christmas party in Sherbbroome House by Benedict Grame. But at midnight Christmas Eve, a scream is heard, and as everyone rushed toward the noise they find the body of Father Christmas. With the help of the police Tremaine tries to find the guilty party.
An enjoyable and very readable Golden Age (written in 1949) mystery with the varied selection of guests. Probably more of a 3.5 star rating, as I look forward to hopefully reading more in this series if they are to be reprinted.
