4:50 from Paddington: A Miss Marple Mystery by Agatha Christie

4.0

This was my first Marple and it's a bit of an odd one as she's barely in it. That said, when she is around she's a bit smug and annoying, so I was glad Lucy was the main protagonist. The mystery itself is pretty interesting, but the solution does seem a little unfair. I did guess the outcome (which is skewing my opinion of the book slightly more positively) but that came from thinking about what Christie might be up to more than any trail of clues left behind to piece together. There's still plenty of shifty characters to enjoy though, and still a fast, fun read.
