    <body><![CDATA[Very good mystery from the Grande Dame of mysteries, Agatha Christie.  I actually enjoyed this; but I think knowing that Richard Armitage plays the part of Phillip Durrant in the &quot;Miss Marple&quot; film mystery of the same name probably upped my enjoyment level since I will be viewing the film ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/18541610">more...</a>]]></body>

    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;Recovering from amnesia, Dr. Arthur Calgary discovers that he alone could have provided an alibi in a scandalous murder trial. It ended in the conviction of Jacko Argyle. The victim was Jacko's own mother, and to make matters worse, he died in prison. But the young man's innocence means that someone else killed the Argyle matriarch, and would certainly kill again to remain in the shadows. Shaded in the moral ambiguity of murder, the provocative psychological puzzler of guilt, vengeance, and blood secrets is among Agatha Christie's personal favorites.<br/>&lt;/div&gt;]]>

    <body><![CDATA[While I liked the moral of the book about innocence, I didn't like this book's 'detective' as much as I liked Christie's other detectives.  I liked the characters.  I did figure out who the murder was before the revelations scene, but only just before it.  Overall, a good read.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Not one of her better books(to be honest, lacking a little in plot, not that much happens), but Agatha Christie's books are in a class of their own, so it doesn't really matter. I, as ever, had no clue at all to the identity of the murderer, and the family tensions are well-written.]]></body>
