What begins as a genteel reunion unravels with startling speed: a murder is committed in the dead of night, and the impossible geography of the crime scene defies every rational explanation. Agatha Christie, the undisputed Queen of Crime, constructs a masterwork of misdirection in which the very act of charitable goodness becomes a smokescreen for lethal intent.\n\nThey Do It with Mirrors stands as a testament to Christie's genius for exploiting the reader's blind spots — her prose is deceptively simple, her plots devastatingly intricate. Miss Marple, sharp as ever beneath her gentle village-spinster exterior, cuts through a fog of false alibis and theatrical distractions with quiet, devastating precision. For those who believe they have Christie figured out, this novel issues a pointed and thoroughly enjoyable challenge.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49130586079451,"sku":"2026100007656-SECONDHAND","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/1f064212-49fd-4f63-95a9-c6b96ada992e.png?v=1786586868","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100007656-secondhand-they-do-it-with-mirrors","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
