It took longer than average for Gamadge to first appear in this 12th book in the series - so long, in fact, that I was beginning to wonder if it was going to be a stand-alone rather than one of this series at all! He arrives at the behest of a friend and thus I guess it isn't too surprising that his expertise in books & documents only figures very slightly in the case (though they do play a part). I didn't see the solution coming at all which normally would cause me to bump up my rating to a 4*; I didn't do so in this case because I didn't feel that I could have figured it out, that certain knowledge Gamadge had wasn't made available to me the reader. Of course, now that I write that I can't name anything specific to corroborate my feeling! aucune critique | ajouter une critique

From Agatha Christie's favorite American author--a 1940s amateur sleuth must save a friend accused of murder in a small New York town. Frazer's Mills, in Westchester County, New York, is a small, isolated village, where everyone knows everyone else and things haven't changed much (and the mills have been closed for quite some time). When murder suddenly intrudes upon this sedate rural backwater, antiquarian book dealer Henry Gamadge arrives to solve the mystery and restore order. "One of Daly's best . . . an engrossing tale, both for its problem and for its setting." --Curt Evans, The Passing Tramp blog Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
