El hallazgo de un hombre moribundo al pie de un acantilado desencadena una trepidante trama policíaca, en la que las únicas pistas son las misteriosas palabras pronunciadas por el desconocido antes de morir y la fotografía de una hermosa mujer en sus bolsillos. El caso se complica tras la tentativa de envenenamiento del testigo que acompañó a la víctima en sus últimos momentos. A partir de estos ingredientes en La trayectoria del bumerán, la autora, la siempre genial escritora británica Agatha Christie, mantiene en vilo al lector gracias a la sabía dosificación de nuevos datos y a la convincente caracterización de los personajes.

Review of "Why Didn't They Ask Evans? (St. Martin's Minotaur Mysteries)" on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

Not my favorite Christie, but still an interesting story. I thought I had puzzled it out a couple of times, but she gave the classic twists and turns you expect so I was partially correct, but way off base on the other parts.

Bobby Jones stumbles upon a gravely injured man who utters a cryptic question as his last words: "Why didn't they ask Evans?" And we are off to the races. Bobby and his childhood friend, Lady Francis, investigate and cook up the most ridiculous plans, putting themselves in danger literally the entire book. But it's all good in the end, and I quite enjoyed the wrap-up.

Not her best, but even a mediocre Christie is better than most others. Enjoy!
