Full disclosure: I only picked this up to read Death on the Nile (and only that) for a class. All three stories are well-written and I very much understand why Agatha Christie remains a popular author. Death on the Nile was probably my favorite of the three. Objectively, they’re all good. However, the detective genre generally isn’t really for me — so could this be rated higher? Probably. I’m simply biased, so if you want to read a good golden age detective story don’t let me stop you!
