Partners in Crime - Agatha Christie ... collection, reissued with a striking new cover designed to appeal to the latest generation of Agatha Christie fans and book lovers. Tommy and Tuppence Beresford were restless for adventure, so when they were asked to take over Blunt's International Detective Agency, they leapt at the chance. After their triumphant recovery of a pink pearl, intriguing cases kept on coming their way: a stabbing on Sunningdale golf course; cryptic messages in the personal columns of newspapers; and even a box of poisoned chocolates.

 ... present the reader with a truly humorous portrayal of each attempt, at times mocking the flaws inherent in the other stories (even with her own) and at others indicating the talents prevalent in them. Tommy's effort to emulate Holmes, for example, is soundly thwarted when his comment about riding a bus based on a ticket he sees is given an entirely unexpected answer. Moreover, Tommy offhandedly refers to Hastings as Poirot's "idiot friend", a description which is somewhat surprising if that was Christie's own vi...more

Premium Review Partners in Crime - Agatha Christie: Will Tommy (of the Secret Service) and Tuppence get tied up ... (1721 words)

Rating:

Six years after their first adventure with "The Secret Adversary", Tommy and Prudence "Tuppence" Beresford find themselves living a life which is pleasant, if somewhat dull and predictable.

It is bound to become very cheap to buy soon! It has ruined the concept of Dexter and what he is!

Main idea is interesting, although this is let down in execution. Poorly plotted & developed. Contrived motive & ending.


A great page turner that will keep you reading on..! Not the most difficult of mysteries to solve for any avid Christie fan!

Quite light and easy to read, a couple of very good stories Majority rather lack lustre and unoriginal

It ends Charmless and uninteresting, "borrowed" scenes

Natural Selection - Bill Dare
An enjoyable romantic comedy that forsakes soppy idealism for painful and amusing realism. First-time author's lack of experience is a bit obvious, and some creative decisions are a bit odd.
