The Most Wonderful Time of the Year: A Christmas Short-Story Collection

In Jodi Taylor's The Chronicles of St Mary's, it's never Christmas without illegal expeditions, riotous misbehavior, and stories you can't put down. This festive collection takes readers from Frogmorton Farm to Time Police HQ via the Institute of Historical Research in five (and a bit) short stories. The stories include "Why Is Nothing Ever Simple?" "The Ordeal of the Haunted Room," "The Toast of Time," "Santa Grint," and "Joy to the World." The collection is a Christmas treat that didn't disappoint, and it's a highlight of Christmas as much as the pantomime, mince pies, and the King's speech.
