Carly Louise is a wonderful woman. Her two ex-husbands allowed her to live in a mansion and have no worries about food and clothing all her life. Although her current husband has a weird personality, he loves her unreservedly. Her children are around her knees, her relatives are friendly, her servants are loyal, and even the years have not left many marks on her face. This kind of life is perfect, but her old classmates feel that there is an ominous atmosphere surrounding her, and there are even signs of death.
Therefore, Miss Marple was entrusted to go there, hoping to find out the source of the old classmate's ominous premonition. It didn't take long for her to discover that Carly's happiness was just a reflection in the mirror. Someone wanted to explore the object in the mirror but it led to murder...
Reader comments
I have read the eleventh novel in the Miss Marple series. It is still a classic grandmother-style cruel and heart-warming story. It is currently my second favorite story in the series.
Let me start by saying that the trick is very interesting, at least for me it is really interesting. It is a technique that I did not guess. Maybe I am too stupid. It was not until Miss Marple said that Edgar looked like the son of a dentist that I vaguely discovered the truth. Even so, the moment of solving the puzzle still felt too shocking.
Let's talk about human nature and relationships, "But Grandma only said 'Mildred,' and Aunt Mildred called 'Mom,' and they walked home together. Grandma looked so thin and fragile, leaning against Aunt Mildred. I had never realized the connection between them before that moment. The feelings are so deep, you know, this kind of feeling is not often shown, but it is always in each other's hearts. "I like this description so much. They always say that grandma has a thorough analysis of the relationship between the sexes, but in fact she has a thorough analysis of the relationship between any person, right?
Also, I would probably say that my favorite in this book is Walter. I can't explain why, but in short, this character is very attractive to me, and maybe it makes me have some sympathy for him. In short, I really hope that he will have a good ending, and sure enough! Grandma will not disappoint my expectations. I like this kind of grandma-style lovers who finally get married. Although I am very dissatisfied with the fact that Gina has been flirting with the Stephen brothers (perhaps it should not be said so seriously), it is indeed not difficult to see that she actually loves Wally very much. For example, when the police inspector routinely questioned her, she lied and said that Wally came back before the gunshot. She did not want her husband to be suspected at all, so I am very satisfied with this ending!
The plot of this book is full of ups and downs, full of suspense, and kept me guessing what the truth was. Moreover, Agatha Christie's writing style is concise and clear, and her descriptions are delicate, making me feel like I am in the world of the book. Miss Marple's words in the book impressed me deeply: "There is nothing new under the sun." She used this sentence to describe crime, and it also made me feel her wisdom and insight. I think this is a very exciting detective novel and I highly recommend it to friends who like mystery!
A very nice book
I have watched the whole season of Poirot (British TV series?) Before. It is a very exciting mystery story, so I immediately clicked on this book when I saw it on the home page of Tomato. At first I felt sorry that I couldn't listen to this book, and I searched for other Miss Marple books. Unfortunately, I couldn't listen to two or three of them, so I had to go back and read it. Halfway through, I realized that it was so great that I couldn't listen to the book. I was listening to Sherlock Holmes while reading this book. Because I had read part of the paper book before, it didn't sound like a big problem. Until The Sapphire Case, I had not read this story. I was doing other things while listening to the book, and I was intermittently confused. This type of novel may be full of clues, which may cause confusion if you don't pay attention, so it is more suitable to read directly.
Compared to Sherlock Holmes, I prefer the relationship between the detective and the police chief written by Agatha. The detective written by Doyle gives people a sense of stupidity and arrogance. I prefer a friendly relationship. However, different authors also have the advantages of different authors. At least Holmes still has a chance to be resurrected, but Poirot does not. When Poirot was killed by a bomb and reappeared, I thought he would not die, but I didn't expect that the ending would give the reader a severe blow. I don't know the ending of Miss Marple. I hope she can enjoy her old age and just have an open ending. I don't really want to see my favorite character reach the end of her life.
The background story is very substantial, and I was very immersive when writing it down. I feel very calm in this book, which is a little depressing because when I first entered the villa, I felt like a stranger, but after I became familiar with the names and characters of the people, I felt like I was watching their lives.
I guessed wrong again, it wasn't my family, it was my husband. Lewis wanted more money, so he raised a group of criminals and his son acted with him. Only they were in the same space and could be easily concealed from sight.
No one was poisoned, but several innocent people still died. There are many sad parts in people's stories, but they still make people feel emotional. The love between mother and daughter is deep, and the love between father and son.
Everyone thinks that Mrs. Ruth is stupid, but she actually knows a lot of things.
This book is so long that I read it online. I kind of broke down after reading it. I tortured myself while reading it. It's rare that I guessed the murderer correctly for the first time. Maybe I didn't finish it. Applause👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏, but I still have to read it again later.
It's quite good-looking. I like the characters portrayed in it more than the method of committing the crime, especially the three amiable and respectable old ladies and best friends.
It's pretty good. There are too many people and I can't remember it.
So interesting. This crime method.
Miss Marple is still so cute [love]
It's a simple trick, but the murderer's prerequisites make the case very confusing. Grandma's clues were well buried.
Very good, another episode where we didn't guess the murderer or the method, but at the end we have a little question, how did Ruth sense that something was wrong around Carly? Is it just your intuition that there is nothing specifically wrong?
