The Mysterious Case of Styles Manor

This is a very typical type of crime novel. A rich old lady is killed, two stepsons are suspected, the adopted daughter behaves strangely, the step-husband is hypocritical and cunning, and only the servant is loyal, but the final twist and turns make people really hooked. Agatha creates a mysterious and tense atmosphere with her delicate writing style, making readers feel as if they are in Styles Manor and exploring the truth of the case together. There is a lazy sense of urgency throughout the book, keeping the reader highly nervous and curious throughout the reading process.

I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, so I started reading my grandma's book. As a result, the more I watched, the more I couldn't sleep. Finally, I finally felt sleepy, but I was too curious about who the murderer was, so I got up again and watched the murder end. Grandma laid out all the evidence, clues and hints, but she just couldn't figure out who the murderer was. Reversal and reversal, it's really beautiful!

Very exciting, highly recommended, as always, grandma will not let you down. I won't go into the details of the reasoning, but to make a digression, grandma should have considered writing a book about the love story of John and Mary: a pairing of handsome men and beautiful women. John knew that Mary married him not out of love for him, but for freedom. So when Mary was far away from him, he would not take the initiative to get closer. But when John withdraws, Mary's love is awakened. But both of them are very proud people and are unwilling to discuss it openly. John was involved in Mrs. Rex's affair, so Mary also went to the doctor for frequent walks. So the two of them drifted apart, and the two people who loved each other became strangers. Until the murder at home, Mary ran for John back and forth, which made John and herself feel the strong love and see the depth of each other's hearts, so the two of them finally got together perfectly.

Agatha Completion Plan (Poirot Series) Detective Poirot 2-10 The 1 hour and 44 minutes long episode basically restored the original plot of the novel, except for one spy interference item (the doctor). The friendship between Poirot and Hastings was revealed during the dinner. When the case occurred, Hastings met Poirot again. It turns out that Poirot is a refugee from Belgium, who happened to be helped by the mistress of the manor and lived nearby. So, the great detective Poirot makes his grand appearance! Because the case is obviously related to the inheritance, everyone is suspected. Hastings' perspective is always that the woman is innocent and the man is guilty. Poirot uses this to dispel the murderer's suspicion. Poirot knew that the murderer must be very cunning and would let the other party escape if he was not careful. Thanks to the Hastings method of elimination (Moori Kogoro learned it from you, right?), Like most murder cases, the person with the greatest suspicion may not be the murderer, and the person with an alibi may not be innocent. Also, there are problems with being too clean. The most interesting thing about Agatha's story is that one case often involves several relationships, and it can develop into other cases if you are not careful. And Poirot, this just and kind-hearted detective will work hard to give everyone a good ending. Agatha's reasoning may be a bit plain compared to the stories that show off complex criminal techniques and sophisticated murder mechanisms, but this is where her charm lies. These stories are not just stories, they have happened in the past, and may happen now and in the future. I would call it the evil of human nature. In fact, the simpler the technique, the less likely it is to be discovered. Poirot also said that if you just put your horse away and run away, no one will be able to catch it, but if you want to commit a perfect crime, the result will be superfluous and unnecessary.

I read it intermittently. The writing style is not particularly beautiful, but the story is told well enough. The reasoning style is about winning steadily. The advantage is that the details are in place. The author is very thoughtful. No details are wasted. The hints are all in place. The murderer really didn't expect it. Who could have imagined it? The first person to be exonerated is the murderer, and the upright woman who corrects him is an accomplice, but there are no loopholes in the reasoning, which is rare. In the end, the lovers finally get married, which is the unique romanticism of female authors. They are two lovely women, and the two protagonists are also two lovely men. All in all, I enjoyed reading it, but it didn't have the charm to attract me to read it consecutively. This is the author's debut novel, and I hope there will be surprises in future works.

This book describes a strange case that happened at Styles Manor and is also a classic mystery novel by Agatha Christie. It tells the story of the mysterious case where the mistress of Styles Manor died of poisoning in her room. It is a very classic independent manor family murder case. This book is a story with a happy ending in which lovers finally get married. It is also Agatha's unique romance and tenderness. The reasoning logic, plot arrangement, and detailed description are all undoubtedly very accurate.

The best ones are Lawrence and Cynthia. The twists and turns of the plot are ups and downs, sometimes exciting and sometimes pensive. This is an excellent work, without any subtle tricks, but it is enjoyable to read. The points that everyone is suspicious of are convincing, and the final dismantling of these suspicions also makes people suddenly realize. What I was most interested in when I first clicked in was the secrets everyone concealed and how this Emily was killed. After watching the finale, her last words before her death really made me sigh.

It's great. When I read this book, the battle line was very long. Even if I come back many days or even weeks later, I can still pick up the part I read before when I open the book. I think this is enough. Agatha Christie's books have always been very good and I can follow them with confidence.

The entire book is narrated in the first person by Detective Poirot's friend "Hastings". The case is tortuous and bizarre, but it does not involve too many thrillers or horrific scenes. In addition to showing Grandma's amazing logical reasoning ability, it focuses on exploring the family affection, love, friendship between people, as well as different outlooks on life and values. Surrounded by fog and twists and turns. The book combines the author Agatha's background of studying medicine during World War I with her creation. The characters are vivid and full, and it is quite shocking when the mystery is revealed.

I often think that Poirot and Miss Marple are both celibate, but they actively lead the way for young people who have a crush on each other. Why? This elder-like care is so reassuring.

Agatha, Christie's first book. The great detective, Poirot. Series. Belgian, successfully solved the case. Rich manor owner, old lady. Was poisoned. The suspects include the husband, the housekeeper, two stepsons, and the daughter-in-law. Beautiful, wonderful, the beginning of a legend. [Shy][shy][shy][shy]

Second swipe to punch in. Sure enough, you will always have a different feeling after the second brushing. I never found Xiao Hei so cute before! And it was only then that I discovered that the first case in the Poirot series and the first case in the Marple series actually used the same routine (because there were several years between reading these two books). Other book friends have already talked about the mystery and plot enough, let me talk about something else. I have always seen some "feminists" saying that my grandmother wrote too many stories about husbands killing their wives - a sister-in-law who is "fearful of marriage" every day is because she herself has had a failed marriage experience and feels "desperate". But what is the reality - "No one would try such a thing except Hercule Poirot! But you can't blame me. The happiness of a man and a woman is the greatest thing in the world." The fact is that even though grandma has been betrayed, she is still positive and optimistic, still sings about love in almost every book, and still believes that love is one of the greatest, most precious, and most amazing emotions of human beings! But it's a pity that I didn't see through the plot when I read this book for the second time. In The Mystery of the Apartment, I guessed the murderer and their plot very early. How can I put it, this IQ is really inconsistent [face covering] (Wait, it's true, these two are two people who committed the crime, and grandma definitely arranged it on purpose.

"Every murderer is probably someone's old friend" Agatha Christie's mystery novel will never let you feel bored. As the undisputed queen of detective novels, she created the image of Detective Poirot. There are a total of 37 novels with Poirot as the protagonist, and this The Strange Case of Styles Manor is Grandma's debut novel. If you haven't read Grandma's other works, then this one is definitely a good place to start. Agatha Christie's novels always make people addicted and unable to extricate themselves. If you don't stay up late to finish a book, you will keep guessing the murderer in your mind. Property, wills, inheritance, these seem to be the reasons for the death of the hostess, but is this really the case? People with ulterior motives are often beyond your imagination. The charm of mystery novels is that you rack your brains to guess the murderer, but the author's imagination is often one step ahead of you. Remember, you may not be able to figure out who the real murderer is until the last moment!

⒈A very typical manor murder case, and from the perspective of a third party, that is, Hastings, who was fully involved in the case, but he was really misled by all kinds of confusing information, and the suspect was eliminated at first. He was still laughing at Hastings, but as soon as the murderer was revealed, he stopped laughing. ⒉Looking back on this case, although I am still amazed by the final reversal, I still feel that there are not enough interference conditions and the reason why I was misled more is because of Hastings' funny inner activities and poor translation, which led to the neglect of some important information. ⒊Hastings is funny enough. He falls in love with a beautiful woman when he sees her, and starts to have wild thoughts in his mind. The funniest thing is that he even proposes marriage, just to give the beautiful woman a home, but he doesn't know that he has already fallen in love with her!

It's not at all as unbearable as many comments said. Everyone in the story has something to hide, which makes the suspense of the case always confusing. The final twist is very Poirot-like, and Grandma's writing style is really great. Translating names is indeed a problem, but I basically got used to it after reading the third chapter.

The characters in the book are all very unique, and everyone seems to have a secret. I particularly like Detective Poirot, he can always find clues in the smallest details. As the book says: "Don't let appearances blind you." I think this sentence is not only applicable to detectives solving crimes, but also to our lives. This book allowed me to see the complexity of human nature, and also made me more convinced that only by keeping a clear mind can the truth be revealed.

It is very well written, and the descriptions of the characters in it are also very good. When I read it, I may feel it is a bit lengthy, but it is not very complicated. I feel it is a pity that not many people have read it.

I read Grandma's book because I watched the movie Orient Express. I felt that everyone was suspected. The reasoning process was reversed again and again. In the end, the casual words in the first few sentences played a role. Grandma's writing was so wonderful that I was fascinated.

An unexpected result, but very reasonable. I can only say that grandma is too strong!

A mystery and suspense novel in which Hastings is invited by John to vacation at his estate. The mistress of Styles Manor, Mrs. Emily Agnes Inglethorpe, is in charge of the financial power of the manor. One early morning, she was poisoned and died in her room, but the three doors of the room were locked from the inside. The story of the investigation unfolded from there. Just like every step of the detective mystery novel, it took many suspects to be replaced many times before the real murderer was revealed. In order to highlight this replacement method, the author has laid the groundwork beforehand. The plot of the story has twists and turns, and some places are a bit far-fetched, but you can read it if you have free time.

Conspiracies are not outdated even now.

Reversal, I couldn't understand people's names at first, but I got used to it later, it's really good

Agatha's first book breaks away from the conventions of ordinary detective novels. She really didn't expect that a murderer would slander her. Even after guessing the murderer, she couldn't get it right. There are many details that can't be discovered even after repeated readings. The reasoning is extremely rigorous and the ending is also very happy. I wish lovers will get married eventually. Quotes to share "It is often one's duty to assert one's rights." "If facts contradict theory - to hell with theory."

The story structure is brilliant! "Everyone is hiding" seems to be Grandma's typical style. Knowing the truth among the true and false is not only a hearty journey of solving puzzles, but also a large-scale human anatomy experiment.

In the case setting of each unit, it can be seen that the author has added a lot of practical medical and pharmaceutical knowledge and used a lot of details to describe it. It feels that you need to be careful enough to grasp the hints and also need to have a little understanding of medicine to facilitate more in-depth reasoning. This book revolves around the description of various events between the old manor of an old British aristocratic lady and people with ulterior motives. As the mystery is solved with the author, the kindness and warmth of human nature are also revealed.

It's wonderful, but I can't remember this person's name, and sometimes I can't tell them apart.

Conan Doyle's gravitational pull lies in Holmes as a person, while Granny's charm lies in the people and plot of the entire story.

A very classic mystery novel. Although it is not outstanding among Agatha's books, it already shows a distinctive personal style. When all the clues, including the motive for committing the crime, the physical evidence, and the words of witnesses, are contradictory, which one is correct? The highly representative storyline makes the reasoning process not boring. The first-person perspective also helps readers to ask doubtful questions. You can experience Poirot's parallel reasoning path and then ask Poirot for verification. It is very readable.

Unfortunately, I guessed the wrong murderer again. I always follow the plot involuntarily, but I forget that the motive is very important in the murder case. All the truth is clearly right in front of me. It's really hard for me to guess the murderer based on intuition, I still have to analyze rationally. I am just the little black guy outside the book, always guessing and always being wrong.
