Brava Ms. Christie. 100 years old and I still couldn’t figure out whodunnit. Wish Tommy and Tuppence had more time together. Loved Mrs. Vandemeyer.

While the story isn't as impressive as some of Christie's later works, it's fast-paced, fun, and full with twists. Tuppence and Tommy are great main characters, and it's great to have a detective duo than one great mind at work. I really loved reading this one!

I read this book many many years ago. It was my first AC novel and I fell in love.
It was fun to reread today, part of my mood reading.

I loved it! I never expected to like the detective stories in general so much, so I guess I should be glad that I decided to read Sherlock and then got to the others. This was in my opinion very well written, all the clues were there and at the same time you suspected at least two of the characters. I am definitely reading another Christie.

Fun and captivating.

Agatha Christie is back at it again with keeping readers on their toes. A fun red with a twist ending!

It's so unlike Christie's usual books. Interesting to read and compare with other Christie books.
The dialogue was too long at times and there were pages when I simply turned them without reading and yet I didn't miss a thing the next page.
