They were ideal reads for that age, plenty of characterisation, nice plotting, a bit of excitement with no inappropriate language or sexual content...

That is one of my top ten favorite AC's. I am constantly trying to teach my dog to do that with his ball.... But he's not that interested. Cards on the table was good and Death on the Nile is just stunning.

Cards on the table sounds good too, even though I don't know anything about bridge I love the idea of a card game mixed in with murder. Sounds fun! And Murder in Mesopotamia has an archaeology angle so that is interesting too. Greghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17515345156687765162noreply@blogger.com
