This is Christie's second Poirot mystery, and her third full-length novel. I read it for my chronological re-read of the Christie canon, which will include the short collections in order of publication.She definitely has not hit her stride in this novel - in my opinion, that really happens with her ...
This book was so boring over the first third I thought I might have to kill myself. Then it improved somewhat, only to go to hell over the last 15% or so. The 3* rating should have a - [minus] appended. So, it's a Poirot story as told by Capt. Hastings. It seems that a very rich man, M. Renauld, is ...
Meh. But probably 'meh' because I listened to the BBC Audio full cast dramatisation and it wasn't as well scripted, or whatever it is they do, than the last one, Crooked House. It was shorter, but somehow much more scattered, less cohesive. What I can say that applies to any edition of this book...

Poirots "grey little cells" are needed once more. I really liked this second book in the Poirot series. The...
I realized this year that I have never read this book. I could have sworn I had since I did my Poirot readings a few years back, but then realized nope that I must have confused this book with another. Either way, I am thrilled that I got a chance to immerse myself back into the world of our egg-hea...
One of the best, though not very famous, early Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot books. I love the way she makes you cycle through thinking multiple people committed the crime and each time has Hercule tell Hastings why that person could not have been the perp. I highly recommend this book to armchai...
