A good one to end on! Still a lot of "don't trust the foreigner!"
although this time at least that proves to be a mistake!
but much more generosity to female characters throughout. Can always do with more Marple in these ones with other characters in the lead, but the young couple was fun enough. Good listen.

This was my first Miss Marple and I loved it. The suspense was so good, Gwenda my beloved, I really liked her and Miss Marple.
The twist was great although I guessed it before, I was like why would the brother do that tho. However after reading the end of the novel it made a lot more sense. I really thought that my favorite character was gonna die and became sad, but thankfully Miss Marple came at her rescue.
It was super fun and I read this in one sitting.  Would recommend.

Of course, the last book in this series was my favorite. I thought this was the best written with the most succinct plot. Not too many characters milling around. Just to the point.
