Murder at Hazelmoor by Agatha Christie

5.0

I really enjoyed this book. Christie does a great job of describing the setting and establishing the atmosphere from the very start. The seance is a nice touch, adding to the foreboding atmosphere. It is so clever the way seemingly disjointed facts are revealed to be important pieces of the puzzle.

I was surprised by the identity of the killer and had guessed it incorrectly even though there were clues included throughout the story. I'm keeping this vague so I don't spoil anything, but I admit I was a little disappointed in how things turned out for a couple of the main characters, but the clues were there for this part of the story, too. Overall, an entertaining mystery that I'm glad I read. (4.5 stars)
