Description
On a French golf course, a millionaire is found stabbed in the back… An urgent cry for help brings Poirot to France. But he arrives too late to save his client, whose brutally stabbed body now lies face downwards in a shallow grave on a golf course.
But why is the dead man wearing his son’s overcoat? And who was the impassioned love-letter in the pocket for? Before Poirot can answer these questions, the case is turned upside down by the discovery of a second, identically murdered corpse…
Katherine Brown –
I am a massive fan of Agatha Christie, but I wasn’t familiar with ‘The Murder on the Links’ before, and it is brilliant. Christie plotted it to perfection with so many twists and turns, you will be left stumbling along with poor Arthur Hastings as he narrates the story to you, with surprises and unveilings right until the end.
Christie has many works she is more famous for than her second novel, but ‘The Murder on the Links’ proves that from the start she earned the title ‘The Queen of Crime’ for a very good reason. This book deserves to be just as well known.
Highly recommended; be prepped that for the last hundred pages you will not be able to put the book down until you know whodunit.
