3.5

This was an entertaining read but Poirot is very much at the periphery of the plot which surprised me. It also isn't really a puzzle mystery like most of the Poirot books but there are still enough hints for the reader to try and work out the solution. All the characters are unlikeable in one way or another which makes for a good closed circle whodunnit.
