Its been a long time that I read a Christmas book that was of murder on the comedy side. I had a good laugh through out the book. Okay it was more comedy than murder, but a murder did occur. 

From the time of a party to the time Anna wakes up and heads to her pantry and sees a dead person. What the hell happened?

In typical Anna style she tries to solve the murder on Christmas Eve, with her in laws coming. Uh Oh!

She tries to protect her daughter Lily and son Ben. Ben though somehow gets to be involved with this because well he wants something. And Anna really does need his help to keep Lily occupied and have his tech savoy.

Her husband Oli does help a great deal and keep Anna from going off the rails. Her friend Jennie and she mentions  a great deal of Agatha Christie characters that they feel they relate to. Even Anna and Oli's cats are called Tommy and Tuppence.

At the end through all her mess ups and whatever's she gets her person. 

Grateful as the police should be because of Anna!

I give Happy Blood Christmas 5------>

Can't wait to read the next in line!
