The Body Under the Piano by Marthe Jocelyn
4.0
Aggie Morton is not your typical girl. She doesn't focus on the vain trifles that many of the other girls her age do. She finds herself in the middle of a murder mastery when she discovers the body of a friend's mother beneath the piano in the local dance studio. With the help of her grandmother Jane and her new friend Hector, she follows the clues and solves the mystery.
As an Agatha Christie lover, I was excited to receive access to this ARC from Netgalley. I loved how Christie's two biggest mystery solvers were involved in this tale. I appreciate that the tale wasn't written in Christie's typical style where she reveals clues but the readers must figure out those are clues for themselves. Because this tale was written from Aggie's point of view, readers recognize the clues along with her. I liked this style because it felt like readers were learning how Agatha Christie came to write mysteries the way she did.
