Entertaining, quick read, and I figured out the secret adversary early on, but Christie did have me doubting myself for a second! I was pretty annoyed with the very negative portrayal of labor rights movements in the book (ah, truly the worst thing that could happen is a labor strike!). Slow and steady Tommy and quick and passionate Tuppence were a bit of a fun pairing, so I might read more of their books!

This was much more of an adventure than I was expecting, since most of the Agatha Christie books I've read have been murder mysteries, but it was a fun time. I liked Tommy and Tuppence as main characters and I think I'll pick up Christie's other novels featuring them. I did guess the ending which is unusual for me but still found it a satisfying read.
