Kind of slow and typical, but I really enjoyed the ending!

This was my first Agatha Christie book and I was excited to see what the Queen of Mystery could do!
I was surprised to see how long it took for Poirot to show up.. most of the work and info-collecting was done by other people.
I wasn’t particularly impressed by this book, but I’ll probably try reading another by Christie.

Not the greatest one, but still entertaining. I just always find her writing very well-done, so I always enjoy.

This one is a fairly fun if a little bland Christie mystery. Poirot is back yet again, but he seems a little tired. I guess it's good he's staying busy and keeping his mind sharp, and growing marrows in the country wasn't his thing, but he tried to retire and people just keep bothering him. Maybe he could open a school to teach younger generations to solve mysteries and grow elaborate mustaches so they can fend for themselves eventually.
