When a young girl is found murdered at a children’s Halloween party, Hercule Poirot is summoned to solve the mystery.
This book was one I challenged myself to read as I have never been very interested in mystery. The story was fun and fast paced and made for a great start to the fall season! I enjoyed how I was able to search for clues along with the story and I tried to guess who done it!
There are many points where I do feel that some of the conversations between some characters that I feel slow the book down. This does leave the reader with a chance to hunt for extra clues or to remind them of information that may have been forgotten earlier.
All in all this was a fun read and I encourage you to try and guess the ending!
