Finished Swimming Pool by Mary Roberts Rinehart. Phew.. it was an strenuous job to read a heck of bad printing with too small font size. It is one of the reasons I prefer reading ebooks only nowadays because I can change the font size and typeface to suit my eyes. Anyway, the storyline was exceptionally good, reconfirming the title of 'The American Agatha Christie' to Mary Roberts Rinehart.

Spoiler:
Desperately afraid, Judith Chandler barricades herself in her bedroom. Her sister, detective novelist Lois, has no patience for Judith's bizarre behavior. However, a real-life mystery unfolds when Judith disappears from her locked room without a trace.


Next I am taking up Night Has a Thousand Eyes by Cornell Woolrich, an ebook, of course.
