kate66 's review for:

Appointment with Death by Agatha Christie
4.0

Unfortunately I'd watched the adaptation of this quite recently. It stuck very much to the plot so who actually dunnit wasn't a surprise.

To be honest the book felt a little truncated with Poirot saying he'd solve the case within 24 hours. Although the matriarch is beautifully horrific. Ms Christie's characters in this, apart from Mrs Boynton, are very sketchily drawn. However if I hadn't watched the adaptation I'd probably not have guessed the killer and I still love all things Agatha.
