This is the only Agatha Christie I've read that I genuinely wouldn't recommend. It reads like a failed homage to Shirley Jackson. (  ) thesusanbrown | Jun 8, 2023 |  An excellent late Christie, a tale of love and obsession, obsession with a woman and obsession with a piece of land and the house that they build on it. Told through the eyes of an angry, ambitious young man, a true rolling stone in the swinging sixties, this unreliable narration will keep you enthralled, and ultimately shock you. This is anything but cosy. A similar plot is used in the Miss Marple tale "The Case of the Caretaker" published originally in 1942 - don't read that before you read this one. (  ) Figgles | Dec 27, 2022 | 8427202768 archivomorero | Jun 25, 2022 | This was a great Christie character study. MAJOR problems with the use of g*psy from beginning to end, and not just the word but insulting characteristics of the people from beginning to end.

When penniless Michael Rogers discovers the beautiful house at Gypsy's Acre and then meets the heiress Ellie, it seems that all his dreams have come true at once. But he ignores an old woman's warning of an ancient curse, and evil begins to stir in paradise.
