I spent way to much time trying to figure out who everyone was in this book, there were just too many characters to deal with, and their link to the murder. This ruined the book for me and made this book hard work to read. I also was disappointed with the ending as I felt it was obvious half way through the book who had done it. This is my least favourite Christie book I've read so far.

solid, but I really couldn’t hold up with all the names because I am shit at names in general but I also feel like Agatha wasn’t doing me a favour here
