A really fun easy to read short story collection of classic whodunnits. All of them set in the cold of winter.
These are mainly set in the last century but I love the old fashioned settings, the way people spoke, the simplicity of life and the hardship of it before the health service, before the welfare state.
They are stories of domestic life at its most barbaric but quietly so with very few gory details.
A cosy read for me, very short stories to pick up and read as and when. 4 stars ⭐️
