A twisty-turny who/how/why-dunnit that is deliciously tricky to solve, but of course M. Poirot figures everything out! The ending left me with a bit of dissatisfaction, only because I wanted justice to be done in a different way, but the ending is still satisfying, if that makes sense (it might not if you haven't read the book). One of Christie's best, highly recommended.
