In typical Christie fashion this one is difficult to home in on the murder. Excellent read.

I really loved the use of psychology in the book and I would definitely recommend it as one of the better Agatha Christie's and murder mysteries in general. :-)
I checked this book out because my 7th grader had to read it for his TAG class and I wanted to know what kind of book he was reading. I could see how it would be a challenging book for a 7th grader.

A good story; as always, an Agatha Christie novel is easy to read and doesn’t require much concentration. I didn’t guess who done it until the end. A must recommend for lovers of old-school thrillers.

Colonel Race isn't a character that draws me, but everyone else here is interesting--even the guy who calls the woman he loves a little idiot.
