Rumpole at Christmas by John Mortimer

Horace Rumpole is not overfond of the rituals of Christmas: turkey, tinsel and the like. But happily the festive season is not one respected by the criminal fraternity; meaning that celebrations in the Rumpole household are frequently disturbed in most-welcome ways. There's the suspicious Father Christmas at Equity's Court's festive party.
Sir John Mortimer published his first collection of Rumpole stories in Penguin in 1978. By the time he died in January 2009, leaving behind 4000 words of a recently begun Rumpole novel, the character of Horace Rumpole had become his most famous fictional creation. These seven Rumpole Christmas stories were originally commissioned by a number of British and American magazines, and are here published in book form for the first time.
