Take Your Daughter to Work Day

Take stories detailing all the nastiest parts of human behavior, from theft to murder to mayhem, throw in some of the "lesser" darkness that humans can provide during the holidays, and assemble them into one volume-welcome to Bloody Christmas.

So, consider this the savory part of the holidays for those whose reading tastes get darker in the darkest part of the year.
