Sugarplums and Scandal

It's almost Christmas, and that means plenty of hustle and bustle.  What better way to relax than with a Christmas book?  In this case, Sugarplums and Scandal (#355), a collection of five short stories all containing a little touch of the supernatural.  And the best part of this kind of book is that you can take it piece by piece, as you're sure to be interrupted with holiday tasks to do or errands to run.

There's a modern Santa who may be committing medical insurance fraud, a murder at an eighteenth century English country house, family secrets revealed in Seattle, a do-gooder who's being menaced at Christmas time, and a vampire romance among these holiday tales.  But my favorite is a ghost story by Suzanne MacPherson that isn't a conventional romance at all, but a truly touching story with a strong sprinkling of humor.  All's well that ends well in each and every case.

These are stories guaranteed to make your Yuletide bright, so sit back and let yourself de-stress!
