2019 book 96

Agatha Christie's The Murder of Roger Ackroyd
In this Christie mystery, our narrator is a small town doctor (and a great narrator he is) who has a new neighbor--Hercule Poirot. This comes in handy when there is a MURDER and mysteries abound! I will say this was extremely well plotted, lots of suspicious characters, great narrative voice, and a BANGER of an ending. All you could want in a classic mystery. The only reason this doesn't get an A is an off-hand, and totally unnecessary, anti-Semitic comment. A-.
