Ordeal by Innocence is by Agatha Christie. A historical fiction mystery by the Queen of Mystery. Although Christie is the best, this is not one of her most wonderful mysteries. A mother of five siblings is killed and one of the sons is convicted and dies in prison, even though he says he has an alibi. Two years after his death, a doctor returns and asserts he was the young man's alibi. He goes to visit the family to assure them their brother did not kill their mother, but if he didn't who did?
Ratings: 9th grade - 6 out of 10.
