    I'm looking for chilly, snow-covered classic crime fiction. I'm off on a holiday to Norway in a few weeks and there will be the airport, a long-ish train journey and cosy evenings I'd love to fill with plenty of murder mystery.

    I own the British Crime Library books The Santa Klaus Murder by Mavis Doriel Hay and Crossed Skis: An Alpine Mystery by Carol Carnac. I've read the collection of wintry Agatha Christie short stories.

    I could be lured to more modern crime fiction, although I didn't enjoy The Hunting Party by Lucy Foley. I could also be tempted to some post-war spy thrillers if they have some wit and some snow.

    Thank you!
