I devoured this in little over a day because I was so wrapped up in the characters and plot. I do vaguely remember watching this on ITV3 a while back and was half hoping I could remember the ending and half praying that I didn't.
I still cannot get over how how utterly brilliant Agatha Christie is at constructing a storyline where everything neatly falls into place at the end and I can NEVER guess!
The one thing that I didn't like so much about this book was that Poirot was barely in it!
It was effectively a standalone novel based around the two main characters with Poirot appearing every now and again which spoiled it for me. But yet again I was surprised when the culprit was revealed, although I had skimmed over the idea half way through the book but I never find enough evidence in my head to believe it's who I want it to be. Maybe I should take tips from Poirot and use my 'Little Grey Cells' ...
