N or M?: A Tommy and Tuppence Mystery (Tommy & Tuppence Mysteries)
In this exclusive authorized edition from the Queen of Mystery, set during the dark days of World War II, Tommy and Tuppence Beresford are put on the trail of a pair of Nazi spies who have murdered Britain's top agent.
World War II is raging, and while the RAF struggles to keep the Luftwaffe at bay, Britain faces a sinister threat from "the enemy within"-Nazis posing as ordinary citizens.
With pressure mounting, the intelligence service appoints two improbable spies, Tommy and Tuppence Beresford. Their mission: to seek out a man and a woman from among the colorful guests at Sans Souci, a seaside hotel. But this assignment is far from an easy stroll along the promenade-N and M have just murdered Britain's finest agent and no one can be trusted.

I really enjoyed the first book of Tommy and Tuppence but I seemed to get bogged down in this one. Could have been my mood or maybe just not into the story. They are older with grown children and the mystery seemed a little forced. But as always its Agatha Christie and was a good read.

Really good story, kept me guessing throughout - in typical Christie fashion. Tommy and Tupppence are a fun duo to read about. Definitely a good read and recommend!

This was a wonderful escape for me during a stressful time. I had not read any of Christie’s Tommy and Tuppence novels and I thoroughly enjoyed this one, with its humor, suspense and complex plotting.

I liked Tommy & Tuppence, but not much happened in the first half of the book. The pace picked up in the second half. I liked it but didn't think it was very well written.

Suspenseful to the very end. Enjoying this series immensely. Had only read one or two of her books before and long ago. Can't wait for the next to come.
