Secrets in the Snow & Other Christmas Crime Stories

Crime doesn`t stop for the holidays, as this anthology of gripping Christmas mysteries shows with its baffling robberies, mysterious deaths and family gatherings that go terribly wrong. Part of the Macmillan Collector`s Library: a series of stunning, cloth-bound, pocket-sized classics with gold foiled edges and ribbon markers. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. The stories in Secrets in the Snow & Other Christmas Crime Stories have been selected and introduced by writer Matthew Booth. When snow falls and darkness comes early, it`s the perfect setting for murder and intrigue. And when family and friends gather in country houses for jolly festivities, they`re certainly not expecting guests and priceless jewellery to go missing. But it`s fertile ground for classic crime writers such as Arthur Conan Doyle, G. K. Chesterton and Dorothy L. Sayers who, amongst others, are showcased in this nail-biting collection.
