I find it astonishing that Miss Marple remains a side character in a series named after her, but despite this the book was fantastic! I love how Agatha Christie makes you seriously think and consider every single little comment or detail in attempt to solve the murder, while blowing you away with the reveal. I love how frank and cynical Miss Marple is while still being genuine and considerate.  She seems a uniquely kind and perceptive detective and I can’t wait to see what mystery she gets involved in next.
