Reading of her ringing of the church bells, to me, was akin to reading the great sticklers for nautical details ( Dana, Cooper, Marryat, Russell) about which I shall never understand anything. I think that I shall never be able of distinguishing among scuppers, bilge, and crow's nest. This is a first rate mystery that will keep you wondering until the very end. Along with Murder Must Advertise, it is one of her best efforts.
