Mysteries for the spooky season: a hound on the moor, a house that remembers, a locked island and a killer among the guests. Thirteen whodunits that keep the chill without losing the clues.
Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None and Murder on the Orient Express share the list with Conan Doyle's The Hound of the Baskervilles, Daphne du Maurier's Rebecca, Wilkie Collins's The Woman in White and The Moonstone, Diane Setterfield's The Thirteenth Tale, Umberto Eco's The Name of the Rose and modern suspense from Tana French, Donna Tartt, Stuart Turton, Gillian Flynn and Alex Michaelides. Light a candle, keep a notebook and see whether you can name the culprit.
