The Secret of Chimneys
The Secret of Chimneys is a mystery by Agatha Christie revolving around a manor house in England. There was a T.V. movie that was very loosely based on the book. I enjoyed the book very much, I was engaged in the mystery, which invovled neither Miss Marple or Poirot; though the movie was portrayed as a Miss Marple mystery. My favorite mysteries by Agatha Christie are not actually one of her Marple's or Poirot's. The thriller-ish sequel to The Secret of Chimneys, The Seven Dials Mystery, is not a Marple or Poirot, and I really enjoyed it. Chimneys was a fine book the way it was a originally written, the movie did not do the book , or Christie, justice.
