I did guess this one but I also vaguely think I might have seen it as a movie. Or a TV episode? Idk.

This was another book for the ReadChristie Challenge 2021 and I very much enjoyed it. Miss Marple has a very prominent role in this one, which I absolutely adored. She really was the old lady dedective in this one that I always imagined here to be. The only thing that bothered me a bit was, that it took quite a while to get into the story and for it to becoming exciting. But from around page 100 I was not able to put the book back down. What I always find so fascinating with Christie is, that you as a reader have all the suspicions of who the murder could be, but in the end, it is always someone entirely different.

I listened to the BBC 4 radio dramatization of this. Because I'm secretly a 75 year old British woman. It was amazing.

I did enjoy the plot of this one, however the way that several male characters discussed young women and issues around rape were awful and leave a bad taste in the mouth. I note this my seem quite critical based on the age of the book but I would feel right not mentioning these elements as they were pretty awful.
