A fun read. The murderer was brilliantly set up as usual but it wasn't quite it for me. Would've loved to have more of Marple.

A delightful ramble, with Marple along from the beginning, and although figuring out the culprit is prety straightforward, Marple's revelations are pretty drab.  After a few deft moves in the first few chapters, she doesn't really impress with any of her little hints.  The supporting cast, especially Lucy, is charming enough to make up for it, but not quite to the snap of a truly top tier Christie.
