The Christmas Jigsaw Murders

So I mostly liked this, but really had some issues with how it was written.

The best parts of this are the jigsaw element of the story, which was a fun and quite unique way of revealing the mystery, and Edie herself as a character. She dislikes a lot (including Christmas) and is prickly most of the time, but it was still quite enjoyable to read from her point of view. Riga also had some great one liners.

Some of the issues I had were with the extraneous details like the near constant references to Edie's ex which added absolutely nothing to the story, the overly stereotypical characters in the police team and the odd parts which just didn't sit well in the story such as how when Sean (Edie's nephew/adopted son) was kidnapped they were just casually getting food from the buffet at a Christmas party and when the killer tries to poison Edie, but then Edie ends up giving her communion in a hooded robe? It was just so odd.
