I really enjoy these characters and think the mysteries in the series are good. This one made me realize a minor formula, but it wasn't bad. I enjoyed the newest character addition too.
3.5 stars rounded up because I finished it in a day (technically. It's 2am).
I still really like the writing and I even didn't mind the cliffhanger ending in this one but the weird Santa thing was just not for me. I guess I am a grinch when it comes to the magic of the season
Jacqueline Frost has quickly become an auto read as her stories are all top notch. This one starts with Holly's friend Caroline being manipulated by her parents into having dinner with Derek. Derek gets handsy and Caroline jumps up and makes a bit of a scene.
It quickly makes the news, but when Derek ends up dead, Caroline becomes a prime suspect and Holly gets involved trying to clear her friend's name.
The Reindeer Games are always fun and I love the small town characters and the Christmas atmosphere. The murder is always well thought out and it's just amazing writing.
