Agatha Christie: The Murder on the Links (Paperback, 2015, HarperCollins Publishers)

STABBED IN THE BACK A PIECE OF LEAD PIPING NEARBY IT SHOULD BE A SIMPLE …

Loved it

Yet another compelling mystery by Agatha Christie.

The book initially did not hook me at first, especially since I had a lot of trouble believing that the entire cast in this French village were speaking English to each other the entire time, simply because the narrator was there - I'd like to say it was just translated for the reader, but they spoke with a lot of French mannerisms in English that wouldn't be there if it was a translation.

After getting past that somewhat jarring disconnect, the story itself was gripping and suspenseful, and like all good mysteries, you think you're on the right track, but you never are!

A recommended read.
