I surprisingly enjoyed this! I'm surprised bc my friend said she didn't like this, so my expectations were low. Also usually I don't like Christie's espionage stories, which this one seemed to be. But since the beginning the story actually revolved around a murder, so we're investigating that. The writing was also really good and it was so easy to read and a page turner for me since page 1. I do still have some questions about the resolution though, which I think was pretty complicated but weirdly didn't *feel* farfetched to me, in the context of the story. And Poirot was not annoying at all here lol, probably because instead of Hastings, he's partnering with Inspector Japp here! I'm a fan of their interactions so I really enjoyed it.
