A Grave Mistake by Ngaio Marsh
4.0
On Halloween I was in the mood for a mystery and you can never go wrong with Ngaio Marsh. The title was fitting for Halloween as well.
This was a mystery within a mystery, with tentacles in the past and more than one scoundrel to be suspected. A small English village with flashy moneyed folk and bad blood and pettiness. Entailment of property. Wills forbidding marriage. Buried treasure. Rest cures. References to World War Two. All of the classic ingredients come together for a nice British mystery.
