Description
A sophisticated mystery involving a series of baffling, random killings, all committed by very bizarre methods, stumps a police investigation unit during the hectic Christmas holidays.
At Maude Daneson’s rooming house, the holiday season has everyone bustling about in anticipation, and Maude herself is planning a glorious Christmas dinner.
But neither the landlady nor her lodgers realize that a killer walks among them. The police have so far been unable to track the culprit—and when murder strikes close to home, it threatens to chill the festive mood.
