Description
Christmas is a season of overindulgence. For most of us, that means an extra mince pie, a second helping of turkey, or perhaps a third glass of mulled wine. But for some among us, the festive season is a time to settle old scores, dispatch new enemies and indulge...in murder. Here, ten masters of the genre serve up mystery and mayhem aplenty. From a dowager's missing diamonds to a Christmas party gone horribly wrong, these classic crime stories will delight, puzzle and satisfy long after the last strands of tinsel have been packed away.
Author Biography
To include work from classic crime authors such as Margery Allingham, Ruth Rendell, Edmund Crispin, John Dickson Carr, John Mortimer, Nicholas Blake and Ellis Peters.
