5 - And with that I have now listened to all the full length Miss Marple stories and will at some point have to start looking for short stories. This one features Miss Marple as more of a secondary character who pops up at key moments or to guide our main characters along and as is not too unusual, actually resolves to show a fairly disturbed criminal mind.

Twist and turns, but sometimes a bit slow. Nice ending, although a bit quick in the end.

While the writing was quite enjoyable, seeing the twist coming from a mile away took away from its allure.

Delightful mystery. I can’t quite figure out what to make of the obvious class differences, if Christie is making fun or setting the scene. A reread from nearly 15 years ago and I do say I think I enjoy it as much now as I did then.
