1: Not as riveting as I would have liked...
It was an all-around good read, but I tend to go easy on short stories b/c they are so hard to write. ButI was honestly hoping for something a little more gripping. These were a little too tame, contrasting with the implications of the stories on the cover art and then synopses on the back.

2: A true treat for mystery buffs
How Still We See Thee Lie is a true treat for mystery buffs. Four outstanding writers are anthologized with stories themed to the Christmas holidays -- but well worth reading any time of the year! In Allana Martin's "The Christmas Bonus", a stranger hands Texana Jones a suitcase full of money and she finds herself caught up in a deadly feud between the feds and the drug smugglers. In Tom Mitcheltree's "A Merry Little Christmas", Paul Fischer must do some sleuthing to find out way Adam Shipper, whom the whole town knew to be a good and saintly man, was murdered, or else this could be Paul's last Christmas on Earth! In Connie Shelton's "Holidays Can Be Murder", Charlie Parker has a friend who seemingly wants to find the dead body of her mother-in-law under the Christmas tree... ! In Elizabeth Gunn's "Too Many Santas", Jake Hines is called to investigate the disappearance of a child only to find himself dealing with way to many department store Santas -- one of which is deadly.
