Agatha Christie

The harlequin tea set and other stories

Liz B

Collection overall is fine, but there are a couple really bizarre short stories in it.

I don't think I've read the Harley Quin stories before, which seems like a big mistake! This was my first, and I'm clearly going out of order, but it had lovely atmosphere, a sense of poignancy, and it was a good mystery. (One rather shocking mention, which I'll keep to myself, but I've already started the next story I could find! So--just one of those things that makes you go, hmmmm.)
