A review by shante
Absent in the Spring by Mary Westmacott, Agatha Christie

5.0

Absent in the Spring might be a perfect book. It might also be one of the most discomforting novels I have ever read. No blood or bodies, but neither Jane Marple's case studies nor Hercule Poirot's psychological profiles have ever hit as true or as hard as the singular examination of Jane Scudamore's character in Absent in the Spring.
