MURDER IS EASY
Miss Pinkerton was convinced ...
’Murder? Are you quite sure you weren’t mistaken?’ Luke asked gently.
’I might have been the first time, but not the second, or the third, or the fourth.... After that one knows ...’
Within hours Miss Pinkerton is hit by a car, a week later a sixth victim has another tragic ’accident’.
And Luke Fitzwilliam sets out, reluctantly, to trap a mass-murderer ...

About the author:
Agatha Christie is known throughout the world as the Queen of Crime. Her seventy-six detective novels and books of stories have been translated into every major language, and her sales are calculated in tens of millions.
She began writing at the end of the First World War, when she created Hercule Poirot, the little Belgian detective with the egg-shaped head and the passion for order – the most popular sleuth in fiction since Sherlock Holmes. Poirot, Miss Marple and her other detectives have appeared in films, radio programmes, television films and stage plays based on her books.
Agatha Christie also wrote six romantic novels under the pseudonym Mary Westmacott, several plays and a book of poems; as well, she assisted her archaeologist husband Sir Max Mallowan on many expeditions to the Middle East. She was awarded the DBE in 1971.
Postern of Fate was the last book she wrote before her death in 1976, but since its publication two books Agatha Christie wrote in the 1940s have appeared: Curtain: Poirot’s Last Case and Sleeping Murder, the last Miss Marple book.
Agatha Christie’s Autobiography was published by Fontana in 1978.

Murder Is Easy was my #2 January offer in greenbadger's One book a month thread. In the raffle, the book was won by Bookworm-lady. Now it's on its way to Madrid. Happy Reading!

And here it is! I am looking forward to re-reading, and might keep it for a while...
I recently watched the film (the one Helen Hayes, Bill Bixby, Lesley-Anne Down and Olivia de Havilland), and it was brilliantly plotted!
Thanks for the postcard and bookmark too...
