– Customer review on 06/01/2007 This is one of the most interesting murder mysteries I have ever read. Every little element, every little slip of the tongue by each of the suspects, every piece of evidence real or faked will keep you guessing right up until the end. I just kept reading and reading late into the night because the evidence and suspects were so confusing. I changed my mind about who was the true murderer at least four times. I won't reveal the actual plot, but it will surprise you right up to the last page.
This is actually the first Agatha Christie mystery that I have read (surprisingly) and I'm glad that I picked it up. Although there were times that I considered everything about Hercule Poirot to be almost cheesy, in the end his methods were justified, and I really enjoyed the story. I will definitely pick up a few more Poirot mysteries in the coming future.
