This is a non-series mystery, a sort of English-country-house plot picked up and dropped in the middle of Switzerland. Great character studies - Ellis Peters's people are never cookie cutter types. Nice little plot, rife with misunderstanding and misdirection. And the revelation at the end was very nicely done indeed. It's a quick read, but a quality one. (

An interesting island-style mystery. When a group of people are going to the reading of a will they find themselves in a plane crash and lost in a small alpine village. The will is read and found to be disappointing on several levels and then one of the inheritors dies.

It's pretty predictable but fans of Agatha Christie murders would enjoy this one. (

A musical mystery. Legendary diva Antonia Byrne has left some unpleasant surprises in her will. Her nearest and dearest are marooned in a tiny village at Christmas time, and feelings run high. (1960) Average - an okay mystery, but not terribly exciting or memorable. (

The patient, if that was the just word for a cantankerous old woman who was spending her final days on earth in creating chaos all round her, opened her eyes for the last time upon the heavy splendours of her hotel bedroom towards evening, and saw the circle of intent faces stooped over her, agitated even in stillness, like the fantastic decoration of a baroque ceiling.
