WOW! How did this one slip by me? I thought I'd read all the ACs but I don't remember this one. I was unwell & read this in a bit over a weekend. Had this old paperback amongst the dust on my stairwell bookshelf. This copy has so many typos! Got a kick of of that though (guess I was really sick). Absolutely classic Agatha Christie. I loved it from beginning to end.

This has always been one of my favorite books, but I picked it up last weekend to read it again and rediscovered why I love it. You have the regular twisty mystery combined with a lot of interesting contemplation of the nature of good and evil. Very fun!

By far, one of the best Agatha Christie books I've read so far. On the surface, it seems like supernatural occurances are causing the deaths...but what is it really? Highly recommended for a quick, easy, and engrossing read.
