Just the thing for curling up with of a winter evening! 

This was the December pick for Read Christie 2020 and as it's a collection of short stories you get 12 tales for the price of one. I'd read 4 of these before in other collections but didn't mind rereading them at all, and enjoyed the 8 new-to-me ones too. Would definitely recommend to all Christie fans.

Also - look at that cover! Gorgeous.
