Carino, un giallo di altri tempi.
È il mio terzo libro della Christie e devo dire che ne leggerò sicuramente altri soprattutto della serie di Miss Marple!

Mysteries aren't my favorite genre, and this was my first Agatha Christie novel. It was... ok? I guess?
Read for a book club. I probably won't seek out more from the author.

I really like how the Constables and police officers investigating the crime just seem so resigned to the fact that Miss Marple knows everything. It's good to know that her abilities are recognized in such a way.

The body of a dead girl is found in the library of an older couple. There are only two people with motives, and the case gets more and more complicated until Miss Marple is called for help by the police to solve the crime.
I can never guess the killer's identity in a Christie novel! Ever! Just when I think I've got it, I realize she's dropped too many red herrings, making me think I've figured it out, but it's just a ruse, so I guess another character but get stumped, trying to figure out their motive, and then I doubt myself again, and we're back to square one. I shake my fist at Agatha Christie and scream, 'Curse you!,' but I mean it in the best possible way.

Ashamed to say this is the first Christie I have read, having always defaulted to the rather good ITV adaptations.
Thoroughly enjoyed it and now desperate to go to Devon and see the newly refurbed museum!
