This is the first of Wolfmont's anthologies to benefit Toys for Tots.

By the Chimney With Care is a collection of 19 fascinating fictional crime pieces, all themed to occur during the Christmas season. Such seasoned authors as O'Neil De Noux, John M. Floyd and Jeffrey Marks mix their talents with newer authors such as Margaret Fenton and John J. Wilson, to create a wonderful blend of humor, mystery, pathos and even redemption. Murder... burglary... ghosts of Christmas past... they're all here. The best part? Because the authors have all volunteered their creative efforts, the profits from this book go to the Toys for Tots Foundation.

No author in this anthology was paid for his or her work.  Instead, the profits are going to Toys for Tots in order to make this holiday season a little merrier for some kids who don't have very much.

The book includes seventeen stories and one poem, and they range from poignant to spooky to hilarious.  No matter what you're looking for in a short crime story, you'll find it in this collection.

The lovely and talented Dr. Cynthia L. Clark said this about the anthology: "Not only are you being entertained with the talents and clever crime creations of such mesmerizing writers as Guy Belleranti, John M Floyd, and so many others, your reading makes children happy too!!  Snuggle with milk and cookies, light a fire, keep an ear out for the sleigh and read a series of delightful, Christmas Crime Capers that benefit children in need."

Author and book reviewer Sue Vogan says, "This is unlike any anthology I have ever read. To my surprise, it was one of the best."
