The image of Parker Pyne as a happiness expert is delightfully humorous. In some ways he is significantly more interesting than Christie's detectives, because while he adopts the same kind of mysterious aloofness and withholding of his knowledge, his goal isn't always to solve murders or crimes, but is often simply to make people happy.
