Parker Pyne Investigates

Dame Agatha always reels me in. Although I must admit that her title is a bit misleading. Parker Pyne is not (as he will quickly point out) a detective. He's more of a "heart specialist"--working his magic to make people happy. Or to help people make themselves happy. These stories are no where near as good as those that feature Poirot or Marple, but they have a charm all their own and made for a quick read while I was waiting to get myself to the library and get my hands on the Hedgehog book. Parker Pyne done--and the Hedgehog book has made its way to my home. I'll be settling down with it tonight.
