1930s: Wintry Wold, in Yorkshire, takes in a strange visitor…
Another Little Christmas Murder
What you need to know before your trail
When Dilys Hughes finds herself snowbound in the middle of a bleak and lonely stretch of Yorkshire, she has no option but to accept help from passing motorist Inigo Brown, who is on his way to visit his uncle.
Arriving at his uncle’s remote country house, Wintry Wold, the couple encounters a less than warm welcome from Inigo’s new young aunt, Theresa. Why is she reluctant to let Inigo see his uncle, and is he really as ill as they are told?
As the snowstorm brings more stranded strangers to their door, Dilys starts to realise that all is not as it seems at Wintry Wold. When the morning brings news of the death of Inigo’s uncle, Dilys sets out to investigate – was it a natural death, or was it murder?

Yorkshire
Winter had descended upon Yorkshire with starling coldness that year, bringing with it the threat of frozen pipes and far away hamlets cut off from their neighbours, for a heavy fall of snow lay everywhere burying the smaller hills and making the lonelier tracks impassable
..This was her first adventure into the wilder parts of Yorkshire, and the impressive grandeur of the Swaledale country demanded exploration”
There are many parts of Yorkshire which fit nicely with that evoked in the book – visit one of the national parks for views very similar to those in the book (nature wise or course)
