Agatha Christie never disappoints, but The ABC Murders takes a break from her usual model and features a nationwide murder mystery. That calls for an ensemble that arrives too late, and doesn't ulilize it much either. However, the characters are still interesting and Hercule Poirot offers enough circus in their absence. Nails with its twist, as usual.
