Malice Aforethought book. In Malice Aforethought Iles allows us to gradually realize that while the reader is reliably told what Bickleigh is thinking and feeling Bickleigh himself has a undependable understanding of other people and himself. As the reader comes to recognize that Bickleigh’s own perceptions are coloured by his psychological needs the deeper mystery becomes how mistaken is Bickleigh in the natures and motivations of those around him.

These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover.

With Malice Aforethought, Francis Iles produced not just a darkly comic narrative of psychological suspense but also a landmark in crime fiction: for the first time, the murderer's identity was revealed at the start of the tale. Hailed as a tour de force by the British press of its day, the book retains its shock value and stands at in the Crime Writers' Association ranking of the Top 100 Crime Novels of All Time. Thriller & Crime. To read this book, upload an EPUB or FB2 file to Bookmate.

Francis Iles is the pseudonym for Anthony Berkeley Cox, but it is for his two widely- acclaimed masterpieces, MALICE AFORETHOUGHT and BEFORE THE FACT, both written as Francis Iles, that he is most famous.

It was surprisingly difficult to find a copy of this excellent book. I remember seeing a TV version of it back in the '70s and it was excellent but it has never been available for VHS or DVD. But it is a surprisingly fast read considering how long it is and that it was written back in the '20s. Also, this is probably the first murder story that wasn't a "whodunit," the author tells you in the first paragraph, something that had never been done before and except for another book he wrote, probably wasn't done again until "Columbo" came to TV.

This book is fascinating: not only does it explore the mind of a murderer. It also has a complex plot line (even though, in advance, we know that the murderer will be murdering). In addition, the author manages to throw some humor (even the laugh-out-loud) kind into this tale.

If you want a whodunnit, this is not your book. The murderer is identified in the opening lines. But the development of his mental processes (they cannot be called "reasoning") is fascinating, and the author still manages to surprise.

xander
An ok read with a rather surprise ending

Ndav
An innovative mystery that reshaped the whodunit by telling whodunit in the first line.

catterpillar
This book is a clever take on the traditional whodunit. It is no spoiler to say that the killer confesses since it happens on the first page. We are privy to the inner workings of his mind throughout the book. He justifies and rationalizes all of his actions in a way that is quite shocking. However there are sufficient turns in the story line to keep the reader interested including one final twist that wraps everything up nicely.

BeatHoWin
Deliciously written---the plot is good but the author's observation of hierarchy and prejudice among the denizens of a small English town is even better.

GOOD BOOK,GREAT STORY.
