I have only read two books from Max Collins' 'Disaster' series, but this must be the best one as it is an outstanding read.

The novel stars Agatha Christie Mallowan---England's First Lady of Crime. About three chapters in I suddenly realized I felt I was reading an Agatha Christie mystery, as Collins did such a good job in duplicating her style in the book.

As just like Christie, he threw in a number of of red herrings. When the murderer is finally revealed, I had to re-read two pages to make sure I understood what had happened.
