By Agatha Christie
I fell back on my old friend Agatha when I needed a book to get me through until I went on vaca. This one seemed promising and since the library is free, I went for it.
Sir Stafford Nye has an unexpected layover in Frankfurt where he has a run-in with a mysterious woman. Soon, as a result of this, he becomes involved in a plot to stop the youth from taking-over the world.
This was far from your standard Agatha. It was not a murder mystery so I was a bit disappointed, instead it was a conspiracy theory type book where the youth of the world is starting to take over and the government must find a way to stop them. The plot was not super interesting, at least to me. This takes place in the 1970s which was a different time-period for me for Agatha Christie. I can't say I loved it. I prefer the older time-periods and could live without all the political conspiracy going on.
Needless to say, this was not my favorite AC novel.
