Description

Set in the picturesque English countryside, the story unfolds at the grand yet enigmatic Chimneys estate, where intrigue simmers beneath the surface of high society. When a mysterious murder occurs during a soirée, the charming but clever ex-cop, Superintendent Battle, is drawn into a web of secrets that stretch far beyond the estate's manicured grounds.

As Battle delves deeper into the lives of the seemingly innocent guests, he uncovers a tapestry woven with deception, betrayal, and hidden agendas. Each character harbors their own dark secrets that create an air of uncertainty. The tale masters not only the art of suspense but also the complexities of human relationships, leaving readers questioning how well they truly know those closest to them.

Agatha Christie's signature wit and keen insight into human nature shine throughout the investigation. It’s a classic whodunit that keeps readers guessing until the final pages, proving once again why Christie remains a timeless master of mystery.

Terrific AC novel. Outside Poirot/Marple novels Christie enjoys herself. Eastern Europe, Oil, Americans, jewel thieves and, best for last, Lady Eileen's some what lunatic driving. (LE's point of view:- They did not catch Grace Kelly) .
