A fun, easy-to-read Poirot that showed his kinder side more than I expected
The beginning was great, and the ending remarkable. The middle, however, was dragged on far too long. The murder happened so early in the story, it made the rest of the story seem slow.
I'm not quite sure I understood the resolution? Usually Christie is so clear about what's going on so this was a bit... meh.
There are honestly too many layers and reveals in this one. Instead of shocking, it's just confusing. If you have it handy, it's a perfectly fine read, but I wouldn't prioritize it if you're just looking for a good Christie mystery.
(Audio) A classic, intricate little Poirot tale. The narration was superb and easy to follow which isn't an easy feat with so many different characters.

This one took me a little longer than usual to get into it. Perhaps it was because many characters were introduced at the same time, and as I was listening to it on audio it was tough to follow. But once I got everyone sorted out, it was another enjoyable Poirot mystery with many twists and turns.
