J. Jefferson Farjeon (1883–1955) was the author of more than 60 crime and thriller novels. His work was highly acclaimed in his day; Dorothy L. Sayers wrote that ‘Jefferson Farjeon is quite unsurpassed for creepy skill in mysterious adventures’. Farjeon is now best known as the author of Number Seventeen, a play that was adapted for the big screen by Alfred Hitchcock.
'The horror on the train, great though it may turn out to be, will not compare with the horror that exists here, in this house.’
On Christmas Eve, heavy snowfall brings a train to a halt near the village of Hemmersby. Several passengers take shelter in a deserted country house, where the fire has been lit and the table laid for tea – but no one is at home.
Trapped together for Christmas, the passengers are seeking to unravel the secrets of the empty house when a murderer strikes in their midst.
This classic Christmas mystery is republished for the first time since the 1930s, with an introduction by the award-winning crime writer Martin Edwards.
Mystery in White is is the 12th title in the British Library crime classics series. Also available as an ebook here

忘掉我之前关于暴风雪山庄的评语吧!这本就是黄金时期版的啤酒之家的冒险和nine miles walk。气氛一流,中段脑洞大开的推理也很有趣,plot也相当复杂。可惜某条伏线收的不那么给力不然称为神作也不为过

评分可能是期待过高,老实说不如想象中的好.前半部分看的颇有些摸不着头脑,但后半部分气氛极佳,特别是熄灯后那部分开始非常让人入戏,就是真相处理的太过平淡了点.人物方面塑造很成功,最喜欢bore和smith吵架那段.
评分真的是英国版的啤酒之家冒险啊,语言太幽默了我在火车上憋着不让自己笑出来orz...虽然不完美但是布局很复杂,够得上5星
