This book is everything. I had a hard time putting this one down, I enjoyed all of it from start to finish. It’s WWII England, and Tommy and Tuppence find themselves itching to serve their country in some way. And then they’re enlisted to solve the mystery of who Hitler’s secret agents who have infiltered the British intelligence may be.

Yes — it’s every bit as thrilling as it sounds. At first it seems lovely, going on a trip to the countryside where everything is calm and quaint and quiet. But there’s always the knowledge that any one of the members residing in the area could be the spy, and Tommy and Tuppence have to stay alert.

In typical Tommy and Tuppence fashion, they get themselves into a great deal of trouble and have to get themselves out again. But the ending is so satisfying when you get there. I loved reading about all the characters and the troubles they get themselves into, while trying to figure out who it could possibly be.

Agatha Christie really delivers in this underrated novel. I’d definitely recommend it to lovers of wartime fiction and crime/mystery books.
