  "A Murder is Announced" by K8Tullamore (see profile) 03/31/11

Everyone agreed that this was a winner, unusual for us. A couple gave up and watched the movie, but enjoyed that as well. Miss Marple turned out to not be a major character in the novel that we expected, but did turn up to solve the murder, brilliantly as usual. The Ms Christie is British and the setting is post WWII England, so some struggled with words and references that were decidedly Brit. I got so caught up in the narrative that I forgot to keep track of clues and will admit that I was disgusted by a glaringly obvious Red Herring, but a rompous read anyway. I would recommend it to any book club with varied members with eclectic taste. This may just be the read for all!
