Rather disappointing. Felt very perfunctory with Poirot slotted in at the end.

Lovely Agatha Christie, blend of her classic crime and thriller books. Poirot doesn't enter untill fairly late, but the begining of the book works well without him. Good re-readability, the unique plot and setting - going between a revolutions, diamonds, and a posh english boarding school.

A superbly crafted mystery! It was a little strange that Poirot doesn't appear for a most of the book but the story itself had me absolutely devouring it. Loved this one!
Misschien niet de allerbeste bekend boek door Christie, Poirot neem weining leiderschap in dit verhaal. In ieder geval heb ik vrij wel genieten ermee, Christie toont haar geestige kant en het boek wordt gemakkelijk gelesd.
