Lord Edgware Dies by Agatha Christie













                   'I've just got to get rid of my husband.'







A woman tells everybody at a party that she wants to kill her husband and a few days later she is seen walking into his house and later he is found dead. It sounds like a cut and dried case but of course it isn't. This is Agatha Christie, the Queen of the whodunnit mystery.



This is faultless. Agatha Christie at her best. Again I admit she ran rings around me and I didn't have a clue who the killer was! But the plot is woven so perfectly and cleverly I doubt whether Einstein or Stephen Hawking would have worked it out.









5/5
