Having devoured Lois Lavrisa's debut novel,Liquid Lies, I was excited when I saw she had a Christmas story featuring some of the characters from the novel! Like Liquid Lies, Christmas Corpse Caper is a delightful mix of dark comedy and mystery. This is definitely not your cozy Christmas book. I read it in one sitting and was glued to my Kindle the entire time.Mark has to work at the mortuary on Christmas Eve. It's quiet and creepy and things are going bump in the night. As he flirts with his co-worker Kim, he has to pretend to be brave when the dead bodies seem to be moving around all by themselves. But how can that be? Mark is compelled to investigate. I recommend Christmas Corpse Caper for readers who are looking for a holiday book that instead of being sugary sweet is edgy and fun.
