Review - 'Ordeal by Innocence' by Agatha Christie


Ordeal by Innocence is a quintessential Agatha Christie. It's got a small number of possible suspects, each with secrets to hide. They all look at each other suspiciously, knowing that the murderer is among them. But who can it be? The premise of this one is a little different because someone is already convicted of the murder and they died in prison, but it turns out that they're innocent. So it must have been someone else. There are plenty of clues and red herrings, meant to confuse the reader until the big reveal at the end that ties everything up in the most satisfying way.
