'By the pricking of my thumbs
Something wicked this way comes.'
MACBETH
When Tommy and Tuppence visit an elderly aunt in her gothic nursing home, they think nothing of her mistrust of the doctors; after all Ada is a very difficult old lady.
But when Mrs Lockett mentions a poisoned mushroom stew and Mrs Lancaster talks about 'something behind the fireplace', Tommy and Tuppence find themselves caught up in an unexpected adventure involving a strange inheritance, a mysterious house, black magic, a missing tombstone - and almost death for the redoutable Tuppence...

Agatha Christie is known throughout the world as the Queen of Crime. Her books have sold over a billion copies in English with another billion in 100 foreign languages. She is the most widely published author of all time and in any language, outsold only by the Bible and Shakespeare. She is the author of 80 crime novels and short story collections, 19 plays, and six novels written under the name of Mary Westmacott.
Agatha Christie's first novel, The Mystery Affair of Styles, was written towards the end of the First World War, in which she served as a VAD. In it she created Hercule Poirot, the little Belgian detective who was destined to become the most popular detective in crime fiction since Sherlock Holmes. It was eventually published by The Bodley Head in 1920.
In 1926, after averaging a book a year, Agatha Christie wrote her masterpiece. The Murder of Roger Ackroyd was the first of her books to be published by Collins and marked the beginning of an author-publisher relationship which lasted for 50 years and well over 70 books. The Murder of Roger Ackroyd was also the first of Agatha Christie's books to be dramatised - under the name Alibi - and to have a successful run in London's West End. The Mousetrap, her most famous play of all, opened in 1952 and is the longest-running play in history.
Agatha Christie was made a Dame in 1971. She died in 1976, since when a number of books have been published posthumously: the bestselling novel Sleeping Murder appeared later that year, followed by her autobiography and the short story collection Miss Marple's Final Cases, Problem at Pollensa Bay and While the Light Lasts. In 1998 Black Coffee was the first of her plays to be novelised by another author, Charles Osborne.

阿婆的這個係列總是無愛!阿婆但是一定很喜歡這對,所以總是極盡詳細的描寫!邏輯和方法對於偵探是多麼重要! tuppence is such a stupid woman!
評分阿婆的這個係列總是無愛!阿婆但是一定很喜歡這對,所以總是極盡詳細的描寫!邏輯和方法對於偵探是多麼重要! tuppence is such a stupid woman!
評分讀前麵覺得Tommy和Tuppence這對夫婦有點絮叨,結尾大逆轉,並且小驚悚,完全沒猜到。阿婆的語言雖然簡潔明快,但有很多典型英式的智慧又有寓意的吐槽還是很值得玩味的。#路人轉粉
評分語言和場景當然是濃濃的英倫風,可是總覺得情節介入有些牽強,為瞭把案子寫成纔放進來的感覺。嗯,沒看完也不想看瞭。
評分I had a hunch who the murderer is, later I thought there are just too many unassuming details to nail down the murderer, and I'm RIGHT. Btw, 2 Brother Grimm tales are mentioned in this book: red riding hood, hensel and gretel. They do ring a bell, of those good old reading times at my grandma's when i was little, isn't it nice!!
根据看了几十本阿加莎小说的经验,这次终于猜中犯罪嫌疑人,遗憾的是不是根据情节猜出来的。我觉得这部小说不如以前看过的那么精彩,因为基本上没有实际进行的犯罪,全都是人们谈话中透露的关于一些事情的传闻,支离破碎,而这些碎片都跟小说开头出现的和蔼的兰切斯特夫人有关...
評分前言和封底里还是塔彭丝。。正文里就是杜本丝。。。 要命的是。。。这套书其他本里面是塔彭丝。。。 看的我蛋疼无比啊。。。 我还去了人民文学出版社的主页。。娘的找不到联系他们啊。。。作为一套书籍的策划。。敢不敢不要这么着急啊。。。。
評分有时我觉得根据英文地名音译过来的名称很难记,有点不伦不类,听着像是假洋鬼子一样让人难以接受,但之所以记得这部书是因为故事情节中出现的让我影响深刻的一个对白,是由看到《麦克白》这个书名后,男主人公不由说起其中的著名诗句“tomorrow,tomorrow and tomorrow,...
