Book 8: The Body in the library

Photobucket

The latest book I have read for 2010 is another Agatha Christie but one I hadn't read for a long time. It was one of a batch of old paperpacks I was recently given: an old Pan edition printed in 1959 0f the originally published in 1942 The body in the library. You can read all about it here on Wikipedia. It's a Miss Marple and she comes up with the goods, of course. Her friends Colonel and Dolly Bantry wake one morning to the news that there's a body on the hearth rug in the library and Miss Marple is involved soon. It's a nice read, a comfortable Christie. The cover illustrated here is from the first 1942 U.S. edition where it was first published.
