This might make me sound like a heartless bitch but even though mysteries usually involve someone dying, I’m never really emotionally invested or sad.
This one though??? Literally stomach dropping, staring off in to space crying.

I really love miss marple - I used to prefer poirot but now I love a bit of miss marple. I liked the characters, especially the Bantrys and the mystery was suitably exciting and I didn’t quite guess the answer

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.

Hace tiempo que voy acercándome a los libros de Dorothy L. Sayers, la otra gran autora de policiacas inglesas con la esperanza de que me sorprenda y me muestre alternativas a la Gran Dama. Pero cuando, por azar, revisito una de las novelas de Agatha Christie la diferencia es abrumadora. En mi juventud fui un incondicional de Poirot y descarté a la señorita Marple por cargante así que leo sus libros con una mirada fresca y lo que me encuentro es un magistral mecanismo de relojería donde no falta ni sobra nada. Si con Lord Peter Wimsey se disfruta el misterio a pesar de las veleidades psicológicas, en este libro tenemos la novela criminal perfecta en la que todo suma y encaja en un maravilloso puzle resuelto con la peculiar perspicacia de la señorita Marple. Scotland Yard está desconcertada, pero el peso de la investigación lo llevan ellos, con competencia y profesionalidad para que la simple capacidad de observación y la mente inquisidora de una anciana entrometida les adelante en la recta final. Una gozada.
