Is it little wonder I’ve been looking forward to reading Death at Greenway.Īfter a beginning chapter in which Agatha Christie is at Greenway with her husband and house staff listening to the radio announcement from Prime Minister Chamberlin that England was officially at war with Germany (the listening world encapsulated in that kitchen scene), focus is changed to London, April 1941. She brings the authenticity of having walked the house and grounds to this story. As part of her research, Rader-Day visited Greenway and stayed there. ![]() The setting is Agatha Christies’ Greenway home and South Devon, with London as the starting and ending points. Historical mystery fiction! Oh, but she doesn’t stop there with delighting me. Well, she actually leaps across the pond to merry old England when it wasn’t so merry during WWII. And, in Death at Greenway, Lori Rader-Day takes a leap into another whole pond. ![]() I’ve been introduced to dark sky parks, handwriting expertise, and a character who beat the odds of being kidnapped as a baby. I love that freshness, and the characters that help create that uniqueness. Lori Rader-Day always gives readers a unique story, something different from anything else they’ve read. ![]()
