This is the first Poirot book I ever read, and what a delightful ride it was! I enjoyed the many twists and turns, Hastings as a somewhat reliable, if not very observant narrator, and the cast of characters that are all very interesting. The mystery remained until the very end and it was a joy to guess along.
