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 - :)
