A handful of grain is found in the pocket of a murdered businessman! Rex Fortescue, king of a financial empire, was sipping tea in his 'counting house' when he suffered an agonising and sudden death. On later inspection, the pockets of the deceased were found to contain traces of cereals.

Column Based On Books A Pocket Full of Rye (Miss Marple #7)

Its been a long time since Ive read any Agatha Christie and its easy to let ones brain flow back into her story telling style. Her books do have a comforting familiarity. Dry humor to set the scene; the murder; the investigation; more dead bodies; the red herrings; the revealing. No heavy lifting required. Like a pleasant spring day. This one is a Miss Marple and a decent read. It also provides an unexpected and emotional denouement.Heres the kicker for me: I find it very quaint that the British

Another great read.

I was right! I figured out this mystery's culprit. And I also figured the identity of the person who had the grudge against the Fortescue family.

On one side, we have a Miss Marple story, although our favourite old lady doesnt come on the scene until around the middle of the book and stays in the background, and on the other a pretty ruthless murderer, hidden from sight until the very end. The narrative is very deceptive, immersing itself in the life of this

Book 12 for the Miss Marple Challenge. When I picked up my copy of this one, I found the first couple of pages has fallen outso I used for the first time, the preview feature on GR to read the missing bitso very glad this was available.The wealthy Rex Fortescue, a shrewd but unscrupulous man, is poisoned, falling ill just after having tea in his office, his pocket full of rye. While Mr Fortescues name and circumstances of his death merely hinted at the rhyme Sing a Song od Sixpence, before long

Agatha Christie is definitely one of my favourite author. I immensely enjoyed this book - an innocent cup of tea leads the reader on a path of exploration into the world of a very disfunctional family. This is a good Miss Marple mystery. Even though Miss Marple was not mentioned as often as I had expected. A Pocket Full of Rye contains many of the very best elements of Agatha Christie: vivid and interesting characters, a great set-up, and the clever "gimmick" of three murders all being cleverly
