The Adventure of the Cheap Flat - a Hercule Poirot Short Story by Agatha Christie

5.0

Not the typical Poirot short story-this tale has a thriller flare reminiscent of a Tommy and Tuppence tale. Hastings relays a dinner party conversation to Poirot in hopes of displaying his detective skills; instead Poirot’s little grey cells get tingly and the duo get entangled in unraveling why this particular couple got such a killer deal on renting a flat. This was an entertaining somewhat unbelievable tale any Poirot lover will enjoy. Wonderful change of pace. These stories always leave me wanting to be in Hastings shoes-adventuring with Hercule Poirot.
