3.0

This was a fun little lark! Twists and turns, told from the point of view of a Watson-like character who's friends with a Holmes-like character. Not a particularly sad murder, so there's more focus on clues and all the little concerns and secrets of the household. My first Poirot novel and second Agatha Christie, so I'm excited to see how she develops her skills!
