Mrs. and Mr. Bantry wake up one day with the unthinkable news of the body of a dead girl lying in their library. Inquiries are made, people are interrogated, and theories are demolished.  I don't want to get ahead on my review, but I think this is one of the best Christie's mysteries I have read (I still have around 80 to go). The plot was so intricate... Everything was thought up. And it was going to work out as intended if it wasn't for Miss Marple. I love how her knowledge of human nature helped the police once again catch the culprit. And what they made to prove it all is just... Wow 😅
