A review by xenb
The Labors of Hercules by Agatha Christie

3.0

It was a very interesting idea - the twelve labours of Hercules. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but somewhere between 'The Horses of Diomedes' and 'The Girdle of Hippolyta' I completely lost interest, but short stories are generally not my cup of tea.
Out of nowhere plot twists are no doubt the essence of Christie's book and I like them, but somehow it felt a bit too much. Nevertheless, I was entertained and that means the purpose of this book was fulfilled.
