A solid mystery even if a bit contrived. This is one of the better Poirot mysteries although there is no Hastings.
Overall, I did like this book. I thought that it was interesting and I never saw the ending! I found it a little bit frustrating at times, and the ending confused me a little bit, but it was still good. Not my favorite of Agatha Christie's, but still quality literature and quality mystery.
The murder mystery was fine enough (for one that I alas did not entirely solve, though I did figure out some elements of it) but politically speaking, the opinions in this book are, uh. Of its time, I guess. Poirot is still as much of a hypocrite as usual, and pardon me, but his pity is entirely misplaced.
After the disappointment of Towards Zero last month I was glad for a Hercule Poirot story!

Per usual agatha expertly kept me guessing -- so far no hercule books as great as the murder of roger akroyd but this was enjoyable nevertheless

Chời ơi, đoạn mở đầu thì lôi cuốn mà sao đoạn giữa cứ lộn xộn vậy trời. Rối rắm pha thêm chút chính trị nữa.
