It'd been awhile since I read any Christie, despite how much I used to love her in my younger days. I came across a mention of this collection because it includes additional Mr. Quin stories. One of those was excellent and one was so-so. Really, the whole collection is like that -- about half are exactly what I wanted in a Christie short story and the other half, while not bad, didn't make any impact on me. Most are mysteries, though there are two that aren't. The mysteries include characters you may remember from her other works. (well and Poirot, of course!)
