Crossed Skis: A Seasonal Golden Age Mystery (British Library Crime Classics) - Softcover
Book 75 of 107: British Library Crime Classics
Synopsis
Discover the captivating treasures buried in the British Library's archives. Largely inaccessible to the public until now, these enduring classics were written in the golden age of detective fiction.
Crossed skis means danger ahead...
In Bloomsbury, London, Inspector Brook of Scotland Yard looks down at a dismal scene. The victim of a ruthless murder lies burnt beyond recognition, his possessions and papers destroyed by fire. But there is one strange, yet promising, lead―a lead which suggests the involvement of a skier.
Meanwhile, piercing sunshine beams down on the sparkling snow of the Austrian Alps, where a merry group of holidaymakers are heading towards Lech am Arlberg. Eight men and eight women take to the slopes, but, as the C.I.D. scrambles to crack the perplexing case in Britain, the ski party are soon to become sixteen suspects. A riveting piece of British crime fiction that spans from foggy London to the sparkling Alps, the double narrative of this golden age mystery twists and turns with alacrity, culminating in a thrilling denouement.

About the Author
CAROL CARNAC was a pen name of Edith Caroline Rivett (1894-1958), who also wrote as E. C. R. Lorac and was a prolific writer of crime fiction from the 1930s to the 1950s as well as a member of the prestigious Detection Club. Her books have been almost entirely neglected since her death and deserve rediscovery as fine examples of classic British crime fiction in its Golden Age.
