I really like the way Agatha misled the readers on the suspects. One by one the facts surfaced to eliminate the delusions made by the real perpetrators. It's a really good read.

#1) The Mysterious Affair at Styles ★★★☆☆
look, the period typical sexism gets me every time i read christie but her mysteries are god tier. they deliver time. i think i know how it will go down and it never, ever works that way. hands down, the only author i can't predict and i love it
(except for the weird romance subplot but eh)

I quite enjoyed this but I found the cast a little confusing! A lot of characters and sometimes was hard to understand who was who. Other than that, was a quick little radio play which was full of drama. 🎙
