A QUITE ENGLISH VILLAGE A SHOCKING MURDER AN UNLIKELY DETECTIVE

Nobody liked Colonel Protheroe.

So, when he's found dead in the vicarage study, there's no absence of suspects in the seemingly peaceful village of St Mary Mead.

In fact, Miss Marple can think of at least seven.

As gossip abounds in the parlours and kitchens of the parish, everyone becomes an amateur detective.

The police dismiss her as a prying busybody, but only the ingenious Jane Marple can uncover the truth . . .

reseñó The Murder at the Vicarage de Agatha Christie (Miss Marple, #1)

A gripping, classic detective story

Shockingly, I've never actually read Agatha Christie before despite her fame, but I am very glad I did in the end.

This is a classic cosy crime book, starting off in a sleepy little English village with not much going on, and then the usual suspects, motives, and red herrings.

The story is always constantly presenting information to you, and keeps you guessing until the very end. It dots the Is and crosses the Ts quite well at the end with a satisfying conclusion.

All-in-all, I most certainly plan to read the rest of the Miss Marple series if they're as good at this one.
