bellebookcorner 's review for:
Peril at End House
by Agatha Christie
Evil never goes unpunished, Monsieur. But the punishment is sometimes secret.
The plot is interesting because usually he dealt with murder cases in which the person is already dead and he just had to figured out who did it. However, this one required Poirot to be quick in order to save the girl from being murdered in the first place.
It's exciting to see how Poirot and Hasting are trying to piece together all the clues and figured out which one they missed in order to solve the case. I think this is the first time that Poirot actually seems rattled, nervous, anxious and unconfident which is not the Poirot that we usually know. Normally, he would seem confident and calm in investigating the case but this book is slightly different which gives us a glimpse of another part of Poirot that we didn't know before.
Near the ending I tried to figure out who really did it, but as always Christie's books are full of twists which makes it difficult to actually knows who really did it. The ending was surprising and a bit complicated, but after all it's still a satisfying ending.
Overall, it's great, entertaining and enjoyable. I have a good time reading this one and can't wait to read another Poirot's case in the future!
Actual rating: 4.5⭐
