Books vs Adaptations

An irregular series of posts where I pit a book against its film or television adaptation.

• A BOUQUET OF BARBED WIRE by Andrew Newman
• A CLUBBABLE WOMAN by Reginald Hill
• A PLACE OF EXECUTION by Val McDermid
• AND THEN THERE WERE NONE by Agatha Christie
• BAD BLOOD by Arne Dahl
• BAD DEBTS by Peter Temple
• CHRISTINE FALLS by Benjamin Black
• DOORS OPEN by Ian Rankin
• MURDER ON THE ORIENT EXPRESS by Agatha Christie
• N OR M? by Agatha Christie
• PRIME SUSPECT by Lynda La Plante (though this is a TV series first, then book)
• RESTLESS by William Boyd
• ROAD RAGE by Ruth Rendell
• ROSEMARY’S BABY by Ira Levin
• SECRET SMILE by Nicci French
• STARTED EARLY, TOOK MY DOG by Kate Atkinson
• THE FIELD OF BLOOD by Denise Mina
• THE GUARDS by Ken Bruen
• THESE FOOLISH THINGS by Deborah Moggach (filmed as THE BEST EXOTIC MARIGOLD HOTEL)
