Another Miss Marple and a good one for a rainy day. Basically Miss Marple takes a holiday in London, staying at Bertram’s Hotel where she stayed when she was young. Nothing has changed, which is what makes it attractive to visitors as they can taste a bit of old England. But Miss Marple being Miss Marple knows that something funny is going on and of course she is right.
There’s murder, which is to be expected, a train robbery and various other sinister crimes afoot.
Reading this had the feel of drinking hot chocolate. Really you would need a good roaring fire and for there to be ten foot of snow outside! But given that some of may as well be snowed in right now we have to make do.
If you’re looking for a quick read to get you started then I would recommend this. It’s cosy in a book but gripping too. Perfect for whiling away a couple of hours if you’re having to self isolate.
