Sittaford Mystery
I read an Agatha Christie in one day. It had been bad weather (snow/sleet/chill) and a mystery set in a snow storm sounded fun. This is one of Christie's stand alone mystery thrillers like Why Didnt They Ask Evans
The book cover misled a bit because after the inciting incident the snow storms stop and everyone travels easily.
Still an interesting little puzzle
Sittaford Mystery
SPOILERS
The murderer never took into account Emily and her team of Himbos. Honestly a Charlie's angel style spin off series about this brilliant woman and her sexy doofus boyfriends would be fun.
Its the 1920s and here comes Emily and her three handsom boyfriends to solve problems. Every story Emily solves the puzzle while her handsom doofuses get into trouble but also help her and love her. I feel Emily would come across as a woman who owns too many labradors
Sittaford Mystery
SPOILER
I honestly read the story with a very queer eye and in my view Captain Trevelyn, the murder victim, reads as a wealthy gay man unable to leave the closet but wont get a beard wife and Major Barnaby as his long standing serious relationship... which does influence the entire work and characters but still works in text.
Captain Trevelyn only has male servsnts, built an isolated mansion with satalite bungalows including one he gives to his "best friend" the major....
