Christie had a magnificent mind for telling stories with unexpected twists. I’ve been reading Christie novels & watching screen adaptations for long enough that I can usually figure out who the villain is but I usually am surprised to learn how the investigator got there. I will say, Miss Marple is the one who often gets to the solution in the most creative ways that almost always delightfully surprises me.
