Mann I didn't expected the ending.. literally suspected everyone..must go for it
Fantastic book. Well paced, well written, and great intrigue.
Such a smart and delightful read! Although not my first time enjoying what fans say is one of Dame Agatha's most witty plots with its clever and inventive narrative style - it is however, Poirot's ingenious ability to outmanoeuvre the murderer with his tried and tested methodology while cunningly remaining his confidant that pulls me in every time! A definite must-read for all fans of the mystery genre - :)
4.4/5 - a low, crackling flame in the fireplace
4.25/5 - old surgical case with rusty (possibly covered in old blood) surgical tools
