Always wanted to read the novel that was the basis of the famous "mousetrap". A bit simple for my taste (translate: I had found whodunnit) but nice all the same.

François finished reading Passenger to Frankfurt by Agatha Christie
This is a very unusual Agatha Christie. None of the usual heroes. It's a kind of spy story, obviously very much influenced by the events of 1968 (it's published in 1970). Not my favorite AC by far, but interesting nonetheless.
