The Murder on the Links
3.7
(202)
Agatha Christie
"For God's sake, come!" Unfortunately, by the time Hercule Poirot received Monsieur Renauld's urgent plea, the millionaire was already dead-stabbed in the back, lying in a freshly dug grave on the golf course of his adjoining Merlinville estate. There's no lack of suspects: his wife, whose dagger served as the weapon; his embittered son, who would have killed for independence; and his mistress, who refused to be ignored-and each felt deserving of the dead man's fortune. The police think they've found the culprit. Poirot has his doubts. A second murder proves him right.

"Hercule Poirot does it again, this time he is up against another detective and the forces of women scorned. A twist you really don't see coming and a happy ending for the family of the victims of the crime."
Rachel Temp
"A sequel filled with style and suspense. Agatha Christie again fills this story with twists and turns, and creates characters filled with personality and moral ambiguity. Poirot is charming and eccentric as usual, and there were secrets kept until the very end. The added side romance, although brief, is a welcome addition that I look forward to seeing more of further in the series. A fun, campy mystery. "

"This is a really good book. There were so many twists. It kept me turning the page when I thought the story was over."

"This is the first Agatha Christie book I've read, and it didn't disappoint! It has many unexpected twists and turns, and a cute touch of romance. It was written on the 1920s, so it has some outdated ideas about women, but overall it was a fantastic mystery. I can't wait to read the next one!"
