I picked it up seeing the name of Agatha Christie and wrongly thinking it to be a mystery. But I am glad I picked it up.
Joan Scudamore is a woman who knows what is best for her as well as for her family ( it is her own opinion). But she is forced to a situation where she reevaluates her life, her assumptions on others. The effect of her behavior on her lawyer husband, her three kids (now grownups). She is faced with the reality that the life she had might not be as perfect as she thought. She is too terrified to face it when the truth is presented in front of her.
Excellent book on character study. Agatha Christie has written one of the best novels with not a mystery of death but the mystery of life. Amazingly written.
Happy Reading!!!
