I think it has accidentally become a tradition that my first book of the year is by the Queen of Mystery. Always my go-to author to get out of a reading slump, A.C. had me guessing whodunnit until the last few pages.
.
The book itself follows the tried and true formula of her murder mysteries: a little bit of poison, 3 bodies, and a detective who's just one step behind our favorite consultant (in the case Miss Jane Marple).
.
Miss Marple may be my most favorite armchair sleuth of all time. A perfect way to check off the first book of 2024.
