I liked that the clues were all available to the reader, and the pacing was satisfying (there is nothing I hate more than when a mystery is unsolvable because the author withholds information). I didn’t remember who the murderer was, and I did figure it out before the end. I hadn’t actually read this one before, although I think I had watched one of the shows I talk about below. The vicarage happens to be kitty corner from Miss Marple’s house, and she uses her observations of the comings and goings as well as information that is reported to her to deduce the murderer and surrounding circumstances. Murder At The Vicarage was published in 1930 and is the story of a local Colonel who is murdered in the vicar’s study.
