Mind. Blown. I have to admit that this is my first Christie novel. When I was going through her novels on Scribd, I saw where she had said this one was one of her favorites, and that sealed it for me.
I don't think I can give a good summary without revealing the spoilers, so I'm not going to do one for this one.
This book is so well written, with so many red herrings, that you think everyone is a suspect. I thought I knew who did it at least 3 different times. Up until the big reveal, I was absolutely certain who it was...and I was completely wrong! I will definitely be reading more of her work. If you're looking for a standalone Christie novel, a quick but fun read, then grab this one!

@Karina I hope you enjoy it, should you read it!
@Lucy she really is, I don't know why I waited so long to read one of her books
@Herbie I'll give one of those a go. Thanks!
Great review Chris. I love Christie, and have just managed to find a copy of this in the local charity shop to add to my collection. Looking forward to reading this. ❤😍�
I started this last night, Chris. Fell asleep with it in my hands, light still on. Definitely one of, if not THE best Christie I have ever read.
