Agatha Christie
Pretty, young Anne came to London looking for adventure. In fact, adventure comes looking for her—and finds her immediately at Hyde Park Corner tube station. Anne is present on the platform when a thin man, reeking of mothballs, loses his balance and is electrocuted on the rails. The Scotland Yard verdict is accidental death. But Anne is not satisfied. After all, who was the man in the brown suit who examined the body? And why did he race off, leaving a cryptic message behind: "17-122 Kilmorden Castle"?

"Not your typical Christie novel, but a must read for Christie enthusiasts and lovers of adventure. It shows it's age a bit, but it is a story that will capture the heart of anyone looking to escape for a few hours. Christie does it again with a surprise twist that I dare you to see coming."

"There are 4 books in the Colonel Race #series. Books 2 & 3 overlap/intersect with the Hercule Poirot series books 15 & 18 respectively. "

"I'm just starting to read Agatha Christie and reading her in order. I'm still trying to decide whether I like them or not. So far I like the Tommy and Tuppence book the best. This one was OK."
