A solid Poirot mystery. Christie’s novels are so well-written and engaging over a hundred years later. It is fun to guess along with Hastings and wait for the big reveal at the end. However, the n word is used along with some casual sexism and antisemitism.

A delightful crime story from Agatha Christie. I love the way she wrote the characters and the plot twists! Everyone who love mystery novel should read this at least once.

Finally diving into the world of Agatha Christie and the fantastic Hercule Poirot. I was not disappointed! It's also the first time listening to a fiction audiobook and Hugh Fraser really is a fantastic narrator, I was never bored, he kept me completely immersed in the story. 

Great little mystery, had me guessing until the very end.
