Featured review
Episode 6
As I wrote in my review of the first episode. I had a good idea who the murderer of Alan Conway was going to be.
Well what do you expect when you cast a performer who last played a goodie back in 1990.
So the fun was in Susan Ryeland working out why Alan Conway died and why his final Atticus Pünd novel had to be called Magpie Murders.
Anthony Horowitz has fun employing certain tricks by crime writers. Cryptic clues and anagrams. Having an arc from the very first story.
Conway was very much like Agatha Christie who disliked Hercule Poirot or Conan Doyle who grew to hate Sherlock Holmes.
As for Pünd, he explains in person to Susan the Magnus Pye murder case.
With Magpie Murders transferring from BritBox to the BBC. Auntie Beeb has commissioned more Pünd stories. Anagrams at the ready!
