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 CID scrambles to crack the perplexing case in Britain, the ski party is soon to become 16 suspects.

After struggling to reset my detective reading brain back several decades to enjoy this writing
style- this novel did it for me. I had tried several Lorac books and was so done with 'em
when I found this in my Not Started library.
Skiing not an interest so but I started and was
hooked rightcaway. Whew, I can read a few fine oldies so- if some of these seem to drag...
keep trying till.you fine the one that captures you. Thanks to the work of the British Library
staff and Audible. And I love the intro to each book that teachrs us the art of the slow 'tec novel.

Side note: IMHO Women narrators do better with men’s voices than vice versa

I’ve been lost at sea searching for more mystery gems that are not Agatha Christie. Don’t get me wrong! I love Agatha and she will forever live in my heart as the undisputed Queen of the Mystery Novel, but I’ve listened to all of her books multiple times and I needed something new.
I’m already downloading another Carnac and I’m assuming by my glowing review you have already bought Crossed Skis so, go! Sit back, relax and enjoy!!
The introduction says this book has not been published since 1959 and that they are working on recording audiobooks of books like Crossed Skis that have been lost to time and all I can say is PLEASE keep it coming!!
I’m in love
