I gotta say, I do not like Hercule Poirot very much. I like the suspense and as the story went on, I started to suspect a handful of people. Not sure if it is because this is one of her earlier works, but the writing was much clunkier than any of her other works that I have read. And I picked up much misogyny in this book.
