This book dares to ask “what if everyone in town was not actually that upset about the murder of a child because they had personally found her irritating?”

I listened to this because I saw it was the inspiration for A Haunting in Venice. Be warned this book is not set in Venice at all.

Can’t really go wrong with an Agatha Christie mystery although i must say the victim blaming hit a little different in this one as the victim was a child!

There's always The Big Crime but the little secrets and indiscretions Christie/Poirot unearth while solving it are my favourite parts and make me want to be very nosy about my neighbours
