Released to the next reader who picked this one from the virtual bookbox by its first sentence. Hope it is a surprise you'd enjoy. Happy reading.
Will you believe I have never read an Agatha Christie?! Looking forward to this one. Thanks, mcsar :)
A nice vacation read. I do love the fast paced old timey mysteries (I’ve read a few by now). Still not satisfied by the ending. No spoilers but it had me screaming “noooooooo”!
