But, this is no surprise! Every detail is given for you to follow. I loved the way this was laid out. The only problem was that I got a bit confused at several points following the language and stories with certain characters. Other than that, this was truly a mystery!

I always love a Miss Marple, but this one stuck out for me as being really genuinely entertaining. I was worried going in that I might not enjoy the Caribbean setting (only because it's hard to imagine a Marple story not set in an unhinged English village!), but it actually worked so, so well (and I of course loved that our girl Jane was in it from the beginning <3).
It was a brilliantly compelling read and, whilst I did manage to work out who the culprit was, it was still so intriguing seeing everything come together and there were still some great twists and turns. I absolutely adored a friendship that Miss Marple makes too. Just an all-round super enjoyable time, but with enough trademark underlying darkness!
