Todd’s books are an excellent British detective series with a couple of twists. One is that the books are set just after World War I. The other is that the series has a paranormal twist: Inspector Ian Rutledge’s dead friend accompanies him on all his cases, adding his own caustic comments to Rutledge’s thoughts. In this book Rutledge battles snow as well as the silence of a small rural community which closes ranks when a family is shot to death in their kitchen. A young boy is missing, outsiders act suspiciously, and Rutledge prowls at night. Well worth reading.
