It is the night before Christmas Eve
and Hannibal is exhausted as he has been up since 5 am when his day started in
Baltimore. Finally back in Washington around midnight, he has taken a wrong
turn or two and gone out of his normal way home. More than a little
annoyed and dead dog tired, his reflexes aren’t the best when the man staggers
out into the street in front of his car. Hannibal misses him, but will see him
again in “Mystery on Capital Street.”
It is supposed to be a quiet evening
at home for Hannibal and Cindy. That was until the knock at his door in “A Mom Christmas.”
A little girl by the name of Margarita is on the doorstep. Eight or nine years
old she tells them that her Mom desperately needs Hannibal’s help and sent her
to him. Good choice.
Hannibal Jones Mystery: Christmas Short
Stories is fast moving and highly
entertaining collection. The three stories here do little to detail the
background of the Hannibal Jones character as that is the work of the early
novels. Instead, the focus here is on the mysteries as well as the actions of
some nefarious folks who don’t take seasonal breaks or believe in the concept
of goodwill toward all mankind.
