Evening draws in; families reunite, fires are lit, curtains snapped shut. But what is hiding in the shadows beyond the warm living-room glow, where the light won't reach? And what surprises will creaks in the night bring on Christmas morning?
Weaving together celebrated stories of murder and mayhem from the greatest writers in the genre, Murder in Wintertime brings a chill that will linger beyond the last frost. From suspicious slips on the ice to Yuletide games gone awry and footprints that disappear under blankets of snow, these sinister goings-on will keep you up late on the long, dark nights...
Featuring celebrated authors such as Catherine Aird, Carter Dixon, Peter Lovesey and more.
