A review by bookwyrmknits
The Big Four by Agatha Christie

mysterious medium-paced

2.0

This is my least favorite of the Poirot novels yet. I had two main issues with it: First, the casual racism of the era is taken to the extreme in this one, and I greatly disliked the characterization of so many characters as a result. Second, apparently this was originally a set of short stories with a connected theme/enemy, and the flow of the story is lacking as a result. It felt broken up in odd ways as a result of its origin as short stories.
