Un breve riassunto del racconto di Agatha Christie intitolato "La morte nel bibliotecario"
Nel racconto La morte nel bibliotecario, un misterioso omicidio sconvolge una tranquilla comunità inglese. Il corpo di una giovane donna viene trovato nella biblioteca della villa dei proprietari terrieri, senza apparente motivo né indizi evidenti. L’ispettore incaricato delle indagini deve districarsi tra numerosi sospetti e segreti nascosti tra le mura della casa. Con abilità e intuito, riesce a scoprire la verità dietro la morte, rivelando inganni e motivi che nessuno avrebbe immaginato. La storia è un classico esempio del talento di Agatha Christie nel costruire suspense e mistero, mantenendo il lettore incollato fino all’ultima pagina.

Always capitalize languages in English.
A summary of the Agatha Christie story namtitled "The dDeath in the lLibrary"
This story is telling about a miysterious suicide which shakedook a calm english placecommunity.
A "community" refers to the people who live in a place, so it might be better than "place", especially if that is the meaning in Italian as well.
The body of thea young women was found in the library of a local pair wwicouple without any obvious motive.
The Police inspector is trying to solve the enigma and find a truth behind the curtain of different motives but with little success.
IDK the Italian seems to say he succeeded eventually...?
However, Miss MAarple helped the police both with her charm and intelligence, as always.
Ok you are rewriting here, as Miss M is totally absent in the original.
One of many really nice stories ofby the famous Agatha Christie with her such a well known miystery style.
A word that would have worked well here is "page turner" as it would go with the summary saying the story keeps you engaged to the last page.
Feedback
It is a real treat to read your pieces because of the range of your interests, your storytelling skills, and your playfulness in writing.
(I enjoyed the way you set the Lily&Snape daydream in the mind of a student, especially its great ending. TBH I didn't want to spoil the effect of reading it by correcting it.)

Sorry, I missed this correction "with her such a well known" has too many words to be grammatically correct.
"One of many really nice stories by the famous Agatha Christie, with her well known mystery style."
Also, the sentence about Miss Marple should be in the present tense, since the rest of the summary is. That, Watson, is how even those who don't read Italian can deduce that the sentence was inserted by the translator.

Not sure what you meant by "local pair", but I'm assuming it's a pair of people like a couple.
