But as she goes around the house and once she has bought it and begins alterations, an eerie sense of familiarity with the place comes over her, along with bouts of incomprehensible panic. After a week she finds her house, a Victorian villa on the road to the coastal resort Dillmouth. She has recently married and is now house hunting in the South of England, whilst her husband Giles is still abroad. ![]() The book begins with Gwenda Reed, having arrived in the UK from New Zealand. Brad already pipped me to the post at looking at this novel so do check out his thoughts on it from last week, along with other Helen filled Christie stories. ![]() This week I am looking at Christie’s last published Miss Marple novel, Sleeping Murder (1976), a story I have always enjoyed a great deal and in keeping with the Tuesday Night Bloggers theme this month, there is a key character called Helen. Earlier last month one of our founder Tuesday Night Bloggers members, Helen Szamuely, died and as a tribute to her the Tuesday Night Bloggers are featuring posts this month on some of her great interests in life: Europe, History and Russia. ![]()
