Title: The Murder Before Christmas
Traditions abound aplenty during the holiday season.
Gifting books is one weâve had in our Christmas family history for most of our lives.
We soak up the slower pace (Ha! Yes, irony intended), and especially enjoy family time as we celebrate.
If you can capture the seasonâs peace and thankfulness and read a good book (the kind that recalibrates and rejuvenates our tired spirits), youâre off to a fantastic holiday start.
Author Michele Pariza Wacek gets us in the Christmas spirit with âThe Murder Before Christmas.â
If youâre on a âgood listâ somewhere, treat yourself or add this cozy mystery-Christmas style to your wish list.
