Loading... Miss Marple's Last Case: Sleeping Murder; Miss Marple's First Case: Murder at the Vicarage (1976)by Agatha Christie
![]() None No current Talk conversations about this book. 4/8/22 Well written. Plenty of characters and clues. Read during: Summer 2006 Yet another re-read after seeing the new Miss Marple on Mystery. Why a re-read? Because, yet again, the creators of the series decieded to make a large number of changes to the story, for no apparent reason. The original novel makes more sense and is a highly enjoyable read. I don't think I'll get fooled into watching Miss Marple again, I fail to see why major plot changes are needed. Reread Murder at the Vicarage Started 24 May 2014 Finished 26 May 2014 Reread Sleeping Murder Started: 22 May 2014 Finished: 24 May 2014 A tearing reread following an extremely well-done Radio 4 Extra dramatization. Sleeping Murder *** I liked the early parts of the story, and the feelings of deja vu that Gwenda experiences as she becomes accustomed to her new surroundings are quite creepy. The mystery that ensues, however, was a bit of a letdown. I suppose that if you're familiar with the play that is featured in the opening pages of the book then the mystery is easy, but I was pretty confused by the many suitors and their motivations. I was ready to pin the murder on a different character entirely and I quite think it would have made for a better ending. Miss Marple's first and last cases no reviews | add a review
