Dustin reviewed A Murder Is Announced by Agatha Christie (Miss Marple, #5)

I remembered who’d done it, but still loved it

5 stars

I immediately remembered who it was, so most of the story was not a surprise anymore, but it was still a joy to read it. A very typical Christie story—and no wonder it is this popular. Miss Marple at her best!
