This has to be the most Agatha Christie's 1930's racism bothered me along with none of the characters being fun, expect for 1 doctor who has like 10 total lines

I wasn’t found of some of the subtle sexist and racist sayings. However with older books you tend to expect them. Not by any means a bad book and worth the read.

This is a short book but it took a while to read because it is a bit racist and that was exhausting to get through.
