The Mordecai Tremaine series by Francis Duncan (pen name for William Underhill) was originally published in the 1940's and 1950's. It is now being reissued, but Sourcebooks has a different idea of the order than SYKM. In this case, I'm going with SYKM, which has them listed in original publication order, so this would be the fourth in the series, rather than the first, as in the blurb.

In any case, Murder for Christmas has dropped to $2.99 at Kindle and Kobo US (coupon/VIPable).

The first book in a classic Golden Age mystery series perfect for fans of Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot

When Mordecai Tremaine arrives at the country retreat of one Benedict Grame on Christmas Eve, he discovers that the revelries are in full swing in the sleepy village of Sherbroome—but so too are tensions amongst the assortment of guests.

When midnight strikes, the partygoers discover that presents aren't the only things nestled under the tree...there's a dead body too. A dead body that bears a striking resemblance to Father Christmas. With the snow falling and suspicions flying, it's up to Mordecai to sniff out the culprit—and prevent anyone else from getting murder for Christmas.

Murder for Christmas is a festive mystery for the holiday season: mulled wine, mince pies... and murder.
