This was a very cleverly told narrative, a murder that had already happened but didn’t look like a murder.
The usual Christie formula of introducing all the players and yet again I didn’t get the twist, this was a very enjoyable read, up there with my favourites.

An accidental re-read that I enjoyed just as much the second time around. Agatha Christie always delivers a comfy, quick read for stressful days when you need a pick me up from a mustached penguin detective.

This is a classic Agatha Christie book. If you've liked others by her, then you'll like this one too.
