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.

Poirot continues to be hit or miss for me. Think if I'd read this before watching the episode the identity of the murderer might have surprised me but as is I just found it okay.
