Overview: "Hence Crime at Christmas, a Box of Murderous (and other) Delights to take your mind off the rigours of the festive season. Here are eighteen short stories and no old sweats – absolutely no stories which, however excellent, you must have read a score or more times before. Most have never appeared in book-form and two, by British crime writer James Melville and American suspense-writer Bill Pronzini, have been written especially for this anthology. There are tales of tension, tales of brain-racking ingenuity; grim tales, comic tales, atmospheric tales, undeniably acidic tales, tales with twists to their tails. There is a puzzle-story to ponder over, perhaps while cracking nuts beside the fire. There’s even a recipe (and a very good one too; and from a surprising source). And all illustrated in fine style by Brian Denington."
