Title: The Santa Klaus Murder
Author: Mavis Doriel Hay
Published: 1936
Language: English
Pages: 252
Rating: 3/5
Summary:
A classic country-house murder, everyone in the family seems to benefit from Sir Osmond's death, everyone except the man who seems to have had every opportunity.
Review:
This really was a classic good old fashioned mystery.
I love the setting of the English Manor and the English countryside. There's something about the glamour of that time that really appeals to me. I thought the characters were were great, though it took me some effort to keep everyone in order.
I really enjoyed the Christmas aspect of this, as it really creates a wonderful setting. I did, however, find myself a bit disappointed with the ending. It was just like "oh... okay."
I would really recommend this book though, for the festive season, if you enjoy classic murder mysteries.
