content: the beginning of the book is boring until you get to the middle were it gets a better but not much the ending wasn't as clever as Agatha Christie is known for but the alibi's for all the characters are cool. the detectiveHercule Poirot isn't close to being as good as Sherlock Holmes. This is a letdown compared to "And then there were none" but agatha is still cool but if i was you i wouldn't read this instead of reading stuff by Bernard Cornwell or other books by The Queen of Crime!
