Murder in wintertime. Classic crime stories

On a dark winter's night, one person might easily pass for another to hide a crime. Mystery assailants slip down icy streets and through half-open doors. A train chugs north through a snowy landscape carrying criminals, detectives and an innocuous-looking bag stuffed with jewels. At a country house party, a festive game of hide and seek ends in a grisly scene. Cosy up with these chilling tales of criminality and chaos from some of the greatest writers in the genre, where danger lurks in the shadows, and a moment under the mistletoe may just turn out to be the kiss of death.
