"I found this book in a used books store that I found in passing. I had never thought of reading Dame Christie before but since I thought of this a quite fortuitous meeting I decided to give it a chance. I enjoyed it greatly, for such a tight novel I think the characters are very well developed, their human traits being the very thing that put them in the middle of the whole mystery. You expect death at every turn of the page and are taken by surprise when the murder actually happens. The unthreading of the murder itself is quite entertaining, looking at everyone's point of view and their inner voices is great. I will definitely look for other books from her."
