A nice easy murder mystery read full of clues to help throw you off of the ending. Nothing special here, they say Agatha Christie is the queen of suspense novels or whatever, but I didn't find this book all too suspenseful. Oh well, it was an enjoyable, quick read, and after all, what else could you ask for. 3.5* تجميع الأدلة وبناء قضية، غموض واحداث جديدة بتكتشف على طول رحلتنا فى القصة، عاملين مهمين بتستخدمهم أجاثا كريستي فى روايتها فقدناها فى الرواية دى، مملة فى قلب أحداثها ، برغم انها كانت تبدوا فى الصفحات الأولى مشوقة جدا، صدف وأدلة مغلوطة كتير للفت الانتباه عن الأدلة المفيدة، قصص جانبية كلها تقريبا ظهر انهم بدون فائدة ، كل القصة دون المستوي ماعدا بناء شخصيات زى إيميلى والخالة بيرسهاوس ، والأجواء الخاصة بقرية سيتافورد . من أقل الروايات اللى قرأتها لأجاثا كريستى. 8427201079 no reviews | add a review

In a remote house in the middle of Dartmoor, six shadowy figures huddle around a table for a seance. Tension rises as the spirits spell out a chilling message: "Captain Trevelyan . . . dead . . . murder." Is this black magic or simply a macabre joke? The only way to be certain is to locate Captain Trevelyan. Unfortunately, his home is six miles away and, with snowdrifts blocking the roads, someone will have to make the journey on foot. . . .

Big houses, death of the owner, small villages, suspicious characters, ouija boards predicting death (apparently correctly), money, snow drifts on Dartmoor and an escaped prisoner from the local criminal mental facility all leads to a compact mystery story.
Christie does write rather strong, forward women investigators, especially if they're on the young side - lots of vigour etc. ( )
