A Murder Is Announced
by Agatha Christie
A Murder is Announced shows off Christie's talent for red herrings and giving at least half-a-dozen characters a motive for the crime, making it a challenge to figure out whodunit before the big reveal. However, I found many of the twists a little too far-fetched, making the resolution of this one fall flat. It's still getting three stars because I was gripped for a good portion of the mystery and I found a lot of the clues quite clever, so I'm not walking away feeling like I wasted my time. This just wasn't one of Christie's best. It's worth a read if you're going through all of Christie canon, but don't start with this one.
