This version of “Murder Is Easy” has collapsed too much. The careful equation devised by Christie doesn’t work anymore. Instead of several suspects for Luke to consider, the story narrows it down to one or two and the mystery loses its snap. His careful process of elimination becomes perfunctory and Jonsson is given little to do but react placidly to the cardboard characters around him.
