I love Agatha Christie books but had never read the Tommy and Tuppence series. I read Thje Secret Adversary first and then ordered the rest of the series. Partners in Crime is really a bunch of short stories featuring Tommy and Tuppence and their various adventures. The two sleuths remind me of Mr and Mrs Peale from the old TV series. Very entertaining and fun to read. I especially like that the stories are short ---- I read every night to relax into sleep.I'm looking forward to reading the rest of the series.
