False Scent (A Roderick Alleyn Mystery) by Ngaio Marsh
I own every single book ever published by Agatha Christie (including two copies of her autobiography), but after a while reading the same books over and over started to get boring. One remembers the plots quite easily. Ngaio Marsh is more in the same vein, but with snappier dialogue and without the irritating love of ellipses that tends to overwhelm a few of Ms. Christie's more disturbing murder mysteries. Great fun all around, although neither has anything on Dorothy Sayers...
