The Murder on the Links by Agatha Christie
4.0
adventurous mysterious fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

I enjoyed the characterization of the main characters in this mystery more than I did in the last, but I found the plot less easy to follow. I missed the victory lap Poirot took to tie up the loose ends of the first novel. I think my comprehension of Marthe's intentions would have been clearer.
I love that Hastings ends up with a love interest. He's a self-centered character, and I think Dulcie will do his character a lot of good in becoming more likable. She, herself is incredibly cool, and I hope to see more of her in future novels.
