Agatha Christie was born in Torquay in 1890 and became, quite simply, the best-selling novelist in history. Her first novel, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, written towards the end of the First World War, introduced us to Hercule Poirot, who was to become the most popular detective in crime fiction since Sherlock Holmes. She is known throughout the world as the Queen of Crime. Her books have sold over a billion copies in the English language and another billion in over 100 foreign languages. She is the author of 80 crime novels and short story collections, 19 plays, and six novels under the name of Mary Westmacott.
An exotic holiday for Miss Marple is ruined when a retired major is killed…
As Jane Marple sat basking in the Caribbean sunshine she felt mildly discontented with life. True, the warmth eased her rheumatism, but here in paradise nothing ever happened.
Eventually, her interest was aroused by an old soldier’s yarn about a strange coincidence. Infuriatingly, just as he was about to show her an astonishing photograph, the Major’s attention wandered. He never did finished the story…

首先,先簡單評價一下整本書。馬普爾小姐係列的一個問題是篇幅相較於波洛係列,篇幅較長,但有時候敘述上卻比較冗長,有些乏味。看到《加勒比海之迷》將近二百七十多頁時,還是會有所擔心。閱讀結束瞭,事實證明,自己的擔心是多餘的。整本書,馬普爾小姐戲份很足,各個人物的...
評分我很喜歡的一個調調就是在度假或者這類完全和犯罪挨不上邊的休閑活動中發現犯罪的蛛絲馬跡,最終衍生齣真正的罪案。馬普爾小姐很多故事都是走這個風格,波洛老爹也有,但少一點。 這一本的大意就是馬普爾小姐在加勒比海度假時,一個碎嘴的老退伍軍人告訴她自己聽說的一個殺人犯...
評分最近有點空餘時間,再次看瞭阿婆的《加勒比海島謀殺案》,重溫一下馬普爾小姐的魅力。 小說還是很有意思的,懸疑設置的不是很深,也能猜到一些答案的,但是裏麵的人物都非常有趣,我非常喜歡阿婆對人物深刻的刻畫,栩栩如生,可以想象到人物的樣子,阿婆看來還是個婚姻保衛者,...
評分很多人說這本書的謎底齣乎意料、前麵誤導太多雲雲,我倒覺得這個案子齣乎意料地好猜,瞭解阿婆套路或者推理小說看多瞭的人,在第一個伏筆齣現時基本就該能鎖定凶手瞭,明顯到我一度以為真凶這條綫纔是個誤導,以至於最後十頁還在期待反轉,不過可惜沒有。 並不是說這本書不好看...
