This is a cute Christmas-themed short story. It has a heartwarming message at the end, and I did appreciate that the family members aren't given names or racial characteristics, and so could be anyone's family. While it was a fairly predictable story, there was a moment when it could have turned dark (but didn't) that had me briefly wondering if I'd guessed wrong.

An enjoyable, cosy murder mystery set at the end of the Roaring Twenties in Chicago. The description is Agatha Christie meets the Great Gatsby and I think this is quite apt! It has a certain style of writing and is very evocative of the era.

There are a few twists, turns and the odd red herring. It takes time to get going as the murder doesn’t happen until a little way in, but then it quickly builds up speed and it held my attention right up to the end. It's a clever and intriguing plot with some interesting characters. I tend to enjoy country house mysteries!

An entertaining, glamorous and nostalgic mystery which should be read in the spirit and time it is written and represents, a time of jazz, silent movies and flappers: the ‘Golden Age’. I look forward to reading more by this author.
