Spor i sneen by Ngaio Marsh

1.0

This has been the book I've disliked the most so far of the series. It really made no sense. Everyone was ridiculous and I kind of wished they would all die. I only finished it as part of the reading challenge and I have to admit I skipped words as I went. The whodid was so very clear and the characters were written such scorn by the writer and the set up so ridiculous not mention that it had already been done by Christie and other writers that it was such a slog. It's really hard to know if Marsh actually liked writing mysteries or just saw it as a profitable business. With Christie, Allingham and Sayles I feel a connection between the author and their characters and they seem to have sympathy for them and give them some depth. I often don't find that with Marsh.
