Title: A lot of fun
Review: This is really a favorite Christie story of mine. It's a fun departure from the typical whodunit model, and once events begin to snowball, the story moves at a nearly addictive pace. I am used to the unexpected twist Christie plots generally take, but the end couldn't have possibly been imagined by even the most astute reader/sleuth.It is not meant to be political, terribly thought-provoking, nor even credible. It doesn't have to be to be excellent escapist fare, and in this it succeeds very nicely. Characters are well-defined and engaging, and the locations well-depicted but not tediously so. I enjoyed its length as well; the story is not told in a rushed style, which helps build suspense.Read on a bad weather day, tea at your side, cat or dog on your lap, and enjoy the ride.
