Chronicle Toward Books 4:50 from Paddington (Miss Marple #8)

For an instant the two trains ran together, side by side. In that frozen moment, Elspeth McGillicuddy witnessed a murder. Helplessly, she stared out of her carriage window as a man remorselessly tightened his grip around a woman's throat. The body crumpled. Then the other train drew away. But who, apart from Miss Marple, would take her story seriously? After all, there were no suspects, no other witnesses... and no corpse.

Crit Out Of Books 4:50 from Paddington (Miss Marple #8)
Sometimes when my chronic illness is playing up and physical reading is very difficult, Ill listen to audiobooks from Audible. Although Ive physically read this book I decided to listen to the audio version read by Emilia Fox as Ive listened to other books narrated by her and enjoyed them. This didnt disappoint.

4:50 from Paddington (Miss Marple, #8), original publication year 1957Characters: Miss Jane Marple, Lucy Eyelesbarrow, Mrs McGillicuddy.Abstract: Having done her Christmas shopping, Mrs McGillicuddy relaxes happily in a train. Then another train, going in the same direction, draws abreast and for some minutes the two trains proceed side by side. That has happened to all of us. But in a first class carriage of the second train, Mrs McGillicuddy sees, to her horror, a man strangling a woman ...

★★✰✰✰ 2.5 stars My least favourite of Christie's novels.The beginning was entertaining enough and it promised to be one of her "train murders" (something along the lines of The Mystery of the Blue Train and Murder on the Orient Express). What follows instead is a banal mystery that is mostly concentrated on family dynamics and inheritance. The characters were one-dimensional versions of those that appear in Christie's better works. The mystery, if we can call it that, is very thin, and the novel

An enjoyable quickie. Fittingly, it's the sort of mystery quick-fix you could finish on a train, say London to York...or better yet, London to Paris!In 4.50 from Paddington an old lady witnesses what she believes is a murder on another train traveling alongside hers. The police have nothing to go on besides her story and they're disinclined to believe her. In steps Miss Marple, that aged busybody. With the help of a young acquaintance, Marple strings together the evidence from the sidelines. In

I've seen the BBC Joan Hickson version of this very enjoyable mystery, and I thought I had read it, but now I'm not so sure...well, it was a five-star mystery for me! I started reading Christie in middle and high school and my library had more Poirots than Marples, and I was hooked. I still enjoy Hercule and his little grey cells, but I've come to appreciate Miss Marple for her ruthless grasp of the darkest side of human nature and her mind "like a sink", as she admits. Miss M. is sharp as a

The mystery in this one is simply okay - a little bit more fantastical than other Christie books - but Lucy Eyelesbarrow, competent domestic-for-hire, makes up for that. And Miss Marple is at the absolute top of her game. This book made me laugh out loud more than once: Listen, darling, said Lucy. Are we investigating crime, or are we match-making? Miss Marple twinkled. Also, as Claire says, the amount of people in this book who think that murder is a perfectly appropriate hobby for two boys is

I still have no clue who Lucy Eyelesbarrow is supposed to marry... :)
