The main characters might include a detective if it's a mystery set in winter. He or she could be a jaded but brilliant investigator who has to deal with the cold and the secrets that the winter seems to hide. There could also be a group of friends who find themselves in a dangerous situation during winter, like being trapped in a remote cabin with a murderer on the loose.
Winter can be used to create isolation. For example, in a small, snow - covered village where no one can easily come or go. This isolation can intensify the sense of danger and the unknown in a dark novel.
