My book. I read Agatha Christie's "The Body in the Library". The story was
130 pages long. The book was first published in 1942 but my version was published
in 1983 by Moscow Vyssaja Skola. The genre of the book is mystery novel.
The story takes placed in an imaginary English village St Mary Mead where
the body was found and the fashionable seaside resort Danemouth because most of
the suspects were staying there at the Majestic Hotel. St Mary Mead seems to be a
nice quiet village where strange things happen once in a while. Very different people
live there from different social standings. And Miss Marple knows them all very well,
like it's usual for a small village
