This book threw me in a loop to be honest. Major Sherlock vibes and all that compared to other Christie's work that I've read so far, gives off the if you weren't Poirot you would be damned in this situation is all I'm saying.

Really fast-paced, can certainly be finished in a day. Also, I wouldn't recommend it as your first book to read by Agatha, yes it's supposed to be groundbreaking for the genre but with some of the parts stretched out as hell, you're better off with Roger Ackroyd.
