When you normally pick up an Agatha Christhie novel you usually expect a rural England mystery with liberal doses of suspense and crime in it. But this one writing under the pseudonym Mary Westmacott is a kind of semi autobiographical novel which almost mirrors her personal life. The writing is absolutely brilliant and it kind of touches a chord in your heart when you go through the travails that she endured. It is not exactly a kind of a sympathetic novel and it could have ended as a tear jerker but her powerful writing is what kept it alive. Pure genius.
