My thoughts
I thought this book was done reasonably well.
It was a good mystery novel which wrapped everything up and revealed all well at the end as you would expect from a Poirot mystery.
I found that I didn’t get one with any of the characters other than Poirot and I think if it wasn’t for him then I probably wouldn’t have got through this book as I did.
Poirot is a good character and extreme likeable if not a little scatty at times.
I will give the next book a go and see how I get on with this to see if I will continue with more of Agatha Christie’s books.
-Happy Reading
