I like the whodunnit aspect of this, but it does get a bit bogged down in hidden identities and motives. And of course Miss Marple has the perfect hidden talent for the ending. Not bad, but not the best.

Another suspenseful Agatha Christie mystery. It really had me guessing. While I suspected the murderer there were a lot of twists and turns at the end that I totally did not expect. Highly recommended.

This is one of the better Miss Marple stories. None of the characters really stood out to me...nobody truly likable. However I liked the twists and turns.

This was a good mystery with lots of twists. I liked how Miss Marple and the Detective Inspector Craddock gradually put together the truth surrounding the murder announcement.
