This isn't one of Christie's best. It was entertaining enough once I got to the second half but the main character was slightly ridiculous and I didn't really care about the plot. It's a thriller featuring a vague global conspiracy and I never quite understood what the stakes were. I have enjoyed a few of Christie's thrillers but I tend to prefer her puzzle mysteries.
Graphic: Kidnapping
Moderate: Death and Murder
