A classic Christie!

It sometimes dragged a bit, this book turned out to be one of my favorite of the Poirot series. It had a bit of everything - villainous victim, siblings rivalry and a seemingly unsolvable murder. So much fun to see how our favorite Belgian detective would put his grey cells to solving it.

Chistie has always been one of my favorite 'get out of my head for a while' authors. Always smart and transporting in terms of characters and locale. Poirot is one of her best creations and has a lot of good character flaws and virtures. This book was a very good read.

This kept me guessing until the very end!

The entire first chapter is missing.
