{also published as After the Funeral}
Dear Agatha,
I enjoyed this book so much! I was nervous at first because there were so many characters, but within a few chapters I had managed to sort out who was who and each had such a distinct personality. I loved it.
But.
Miss Gilchrist was a spare faded-looking woman with short iron grey hair. She had one of those indeterminable faces that women around fifty so often acquire.
I'm still trying to figure out (a) what this means, and (b) whether or not to be offended. But I guess since you were older than 60 when this was published, I won't worry about it too much.
I don't know why I let so much time go between reading my Christies. I am never disappointed. Maybe 2021 will be the year I finish. Not likely, but maybe.
Merry Christmas, Agatha.
b.
