Good story although sometime shard to follow all the characters. The twist at the end was good but not predictable and it had you guessing the whole time!

Could not get into this book. Seemed like everything is super drawn out and not super exciting. Maybe just me, but do much unnecessary detail about random things

Continuing my journey with the #ReadChristie Challenge in 2022 this was the first book of the year that I read by my (new) favourite author.
What struck me the most was the fast that "The Man in the Brown Suit" is not really a novel I would mark as a "classical" Christie. It's not only a murder mystery but much more a combination of crime, thriller, espionage, romance and adventure. Though I enjoyed the process of reading this book, I must admit that I do prefer the "classical" Christie murder mystery. However, if you want to get to know the author and her stories from a different perspecitve, this is definitely a book to pick.
