Christmas Mysteries: Authors A-D

Crime for the Holidays. Christmas time is a major time for murder! Every year I post a mystery list that's set during the Christmas holidays. It's such an extensive list, that I divide it into 5 parts. Here's the first installment, Authors A-D of what will be a huge Christmas Crime Fiction list. I'll be posting the rest of the list over the next week or so. Although the list has been updated since 2015, I'm sure I've still managed to miss a few authors and titles. Let me know, and I'd be glad to add them.
