Crimson Snow brings together a dozen vintage crime stories set in
winter. Welcome to a world of Father Christmases behaving oddly, a
famous fictional detective in a Yuletide drama, mysterious tracks
in the snow----, and some very unpleasant carol singers. The
mysterious events chronicled by a distinguished array of
contributors in this volume frequently take place at Christmas.
There's no denying that the supposed season of goodwill is a time
of year that lends itself to detective fiction. On a cold night,
it's tempting to curl up by the fireside with a good mystery. And
more than that, claustrophobic house parties, when people may be
cooped up with long-estranged relatives, can provide plenty of
motives for murder.Including forgotten stories by great writers
such as Margery Allingham, as well as classic tales by less
familiar crime novelists, each story in this selection is
introduced by the great expert on classic crime, Martin Edwards.
The resulting volume is an entertaining and atmospheric compendium
of wintry delights.
