This is the first Agatha Christie book I’ve read, though I’ve seen plenty of adaptations of her work (though not this book). Her style is breezy and wry, a very quick and engrossing read, and even though I had guessed who the murderer was well before the end, it was still fun to see how it concludes. It did feel a bit rushed, with two more murders happening very quickly and towards the end, and I’m a bit surprised that Miss Marple isn’t actually in the novel all that much.

Listened to BBC radio play. Guessed it from the very beginning, comp het is a prison, ending is unforgivably sympathetic with a serial killer. Also sooooo many terrible American accents
