Description
Mystery crime fiction written in the Golden Age of Murder
A Christmas party is punctuated by a gunshot under a policeman's watchful eye. A jewel heist is planned amidst the glitz and glamour of Oxford Street's Christmas shopping. Lost in a snowstorm, a man finds a motive for murder.
This collection of mysteries explores the darker side of the festive season—from unexplained disturbances in the fresh snow, to the darkness that lurks beneath the sparkling decorations.
With neglected stories by John Bude and E.C.R. Lorac, as well as tales by little-known writers of crime fiction, Martin Edwards blends the cosy atmosphere of the fireside story with a chill to match the temperature outside. This is a gripping seasonal collection sure to delight mystery fans

This is a wonderful collection of stories from the golden age of mysteries. I love that these stories are being republished for a whole new generation to enjoy. Every story in this collection is well plotted and a fun glimpse into another era. Thank you NetGalley for the advanced readers copy for review.
