 4 stars- I enjoyed this one more than the last few, it was more fun, and the ending was unpredictable, at least to me. I also enjoyed some of the side characters more than in past books.

I've found another of the best Christie books, though it was Darren who pointed it out to me. One of those classic plots which is obvious when solved but utterlyperplexing when still a mystery. Also thecharacters here are more developedthan they often are.

It's been a while since I read an Agatha Christie novel and I missed them! I finished this one in a day and was guessing until the end!

And, because I have a habit of reading a ton of Christies and then forgetting what happens in them....I'm gonna mark who the guilty party is....for my own reference.

Whodunnit? Crofts forged the will. Nick fabricated murder attempts so she could kill Maggie because Maggie was engaged to Seton. Nick pretended to be the fiancee to get the money after he died.

3.5 stars. Too many anti-Semitic comments to be anything more, but the overall plot was interesting. A little easy to guess the main twist, something I don’t usually find in Christie novels, but the rest of the ‘reveals’ were interesting
