Wow, great book. Agatha Christie is incredibly talented and I would definitely recommend this book to others. The ending and the coming together of the mystery, finding out the truth, was very interesting to read, but the language was harder for me to understand, which made the experience a bit less enjoyable. The final truth, the conclusion was also a bit bland to me compared to other books of hers, for example “And Then There Were None” which was amazing! I only gave it three stars because the conclusion just didn’t satisfy me in the way that I had expected it to. But don’t get me wrong, if I could go back and read it again, I would.

A fun, jaunty read. My feeble brain had a hard time keeping up with the various names. Agatha Christie is the GOAT.
