One of the best of Christie's. What-A-Book!! Really top class!!
This is a book on seemingly natural cause deaths which occur at an alarming rate to raise the eyebrows of Scotland Yard. There is nothing suspicious on the deaths and the natural causes as well as the victims seem disconnected.
Christie dabbles with black magic in this book. Very adroitly, she takes the readers through the macabre world of spells, cock-sacrifices, pentagrams and witches!!
First the book seems to be a mixture of mystery and seances... in the end it turn out to be mystery, science and brains... Mark and Ginger, the main characters are lovable; And the other characters too, have their own attributes.
