I mean, it wasn’t great - fast, bland, predictable stories, surface level characters. Passed the time whilst I unpacked my house and that was about it.

I love Agatha Christie, who doesn't? This is my first time reading her short stories and was mostly impressed. The mysteries are well constructed and there's a few appearances of past characters. The only thing that bothered me were a few of the endings that seemed particularly rushed into exposition of the solving of the case.
Moderate: Death
