It's all very intriguing and Miss Marple, despite her advancing years and increasing reliance on carers to help with her physical needs, is as mentally sharp as ever. I was fascinated by the character of Marina Gregg, the volatile and in some ways rather tragic middle aged actress and I was curious to find out more about her, so it was very easy to keep turning the pages.
Despite there being a few too many coincidences, it's an inspired plot and the ending really packed quite a punch. I was literally in the final few pages when I 'solved' the mystery. An enjoyable read.
Minor: Ableism and Racism
