The Regatta Mystery and Other Stories by Agatha Christie

4.0

“He plays the old, old trick of pretending to go away. He watches Rich go out, then he gains admission, is left alone to write a note, quickly bores those holes and hides inside the chest.”

Excerpt From
The Regatta Mystery and Other Stories: Featuring Hercule Poirot, Miss Marple, and Mr. Parker Pyne
Agatha Christie

- This part right here reminded me of a movie I watched a long time ago. The plot of the movie was the husband leaving his family when actually he is just in the abandoned house in front of their house watching how his family will be like without him in their lives.


For the second story or the second chapter, I personally believe that the murder plot was awesome. It would really be a good read if this is a novel of the M. Poirot series.

It felt like the fifth chapter deserves an applause at the end of the story. The storyline would look good shown in a television as a movie. My favourite one is the sixth chapter and Miss Marple was adorable in how she told her story.
