Winter mysteries in short-story form

A seasonal collection of Agatha Christie short stories, *Midwinter Murder* brings together wintry settings and classic whodunit elements, including dangerous gifts, poisoned meals, snowdrifts, and mysterious guests. Some stories feature Hercule Poirot or Miss Marple, while the collection also includes the original version of “Christmas Adventure,” identified in the publisher’s description as previously unreleased in the United States. Its short-story format makes this a collection of distinct mysteries rather than a single extended case, with winter and holiday circumstances linking the selections.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Christie fans interested in a seasonal collection of her short mysteries.
  • Readers who enjoy traditional whodunits and stories featuring Hercule Poirot or Miss Marple.
  • Readers looking for mystery stories with winter or holiday settings.
