I'm feeling quite pleased with myself as I worked this one out pretty quickly, despite it being an especially deceptive and clever little mystery. I have to say though, don’t look too hard at the contents page for this one, it's a little bit spoilery.
I can't really say too much about this, but it’s one of those neat little plots where everything fits together like clockwork in the end, and is very satisfying. I'd say this one has a particularly memorable reveal. That said, unfortunately there's a bit of antisemitism coming from the writer in this one and therefore it make Poirot seem antisemitic too, which is a real shame and was not acceptable at any point in history, which does bring the enjoyment of the book down a point.
As for everything else, it's a great, unique, classic mystery.

- the ending was a little confusing. it pulled me out of the story a bit.
- i thought the twist was really clever.

Agatha Christie had me guessing and asking questions until the last page with this one. Poirot displayed plenty of wit and sarcasm, which made the read fun!

I am so happy that Hastings is back as the narrator for this story. He is one of my favorite characters in this series. I really enjoyed this novel overall and did not guess the murderer at all. I was surprised by who was behind everything and I am glad that the final chapter explained everything, because it was honestly confusing for me.
