Blurb:
Midwinter. As snow falls softly outside and frost sparkles on tree branches, it's time to curl up before a roaring fire, wrap your hands around a steaming mug of mulled wine, and forget your worries for now.

But as the temperature drops outside, malice is sharpening its claws ... and murder walks abroad. In these classic stories of mystery and mayhem, let ten of the great crime writers in history surprise and delight you with twists and turns as shocking as an icicle in the heart.

Ten tales, various authors, an interesting mix, some favourites plus some who are new to me, which is fun.

Though there is that oddity here, an improbable figure, imported into the scene, who in reality would stand about seven feet tall. Awkward.
