Not my favorite one. I had previously put it in my DNF folder but then I decided to *push* through. I ended up having to listen to the audiobook version.

I didn't get attached to ANY of the characters. The omniscient neutral narrator didn't help at all.
Battle is, as usual for me, forgettable. I don't think I will pick up any of his precedent stories.

2 stars because the concept around the "zero" in murder stories' storytelling is interesting, especially at the time of publication.

One of my favorites of the Christie oeuvre. Lots of misdirection
