A classic entry in the Miss Marple series, At Bertram's Hotel presents one of Agatha Christie's most atmospheric mysteries, set within the deceptively genteel world of a prestigious London hotel. The sharp-eyed Miss Jane Marple visits Bertram's Hotel — a bastion of old-world charm and impeccable service — only to sense that something sinister lurks beneath its polished surface. Christie masterfully illustrates how nostalgia and respectability can serve as the perfect camouflage for crime, as a series of mysterious disappearances and a shocking murder unravel the hotel's carefully maintained façade. Written with Christie's signature wit and precision, the novel argues that the past is never quite as innocent as it seems, and that even the most proper of settings can harbour the darkest of secrets.
