Crooked House |
Old-fashioned she may be, and over-read perhaps, but good old Agatha never really fails. Normal, ordinary, even predictable, one thinks, and then is led by subtle touches up the garden path. One could read her alone for the 'feel' of life in (mostly county) upper class England, gone never to return. Easy on the brain but still very much worthwhile when one is fed up with heavier stuff.
