The Definitive Detective Collection brings together the finest deductive minds in fiction. Join Edgar Allan Poe's Auguste Dupin as he invents the detective genre in the mid-1800s, and follow the logical clues to the most famous detectives ever committed to paper, Sherlock Holmes and Hercule Poirot, in London. Along the way you'll also meet Josephine Tey's formiddable Inspector Alan Grant, as-well as G. K. Chesterton's beloved Father Brown, and the more modern creations of Miss Marple, Lord Peter Wimsey, and Sam Spade as they solve crimes in wondorously inventive and ingenious ways.

Kuschelige Weihnachten? Von wegen! Mörder und Halunken machen keine Weihnachtsferien - und so haben auch Ermittler keine besinnlichen und erholsamen Feiertage. Sherlock Holmes spürt den Dieb eines Diamanten auf, der in einer Weihnachtsgans gefunden wurde, während Miss Marple vor dem prasselnden Kaminfeuer von einem Mord erzählt. Bei einem traditionellen Weihnachtsessen verschwindet ein Halsband.

But in collectivist cultures, where community is survival and family ties run generations deep, that advice is both presumptuous and unhelpful.
