This is awful. Poirot is a contemptuous little man who spends the entire time speaking in half sentences when he's not indulging in insulting everyone in such convoluted ways as to show off his alleged superior intellect. A totally frustrating mystery in which the solution is obvious early and it takes Poirot way to many pages to resolve. He drags it out just to watch Japp squirm and laugh at him, I swear.
