Some madman is apparently randomly killing people alphabetically (by the person's name and the town they live in) in towns listed in the large A.B.C. railway listing and writing Hercule Poirot to taunt him that he cannot stop or prevent these murders.

A fascinating, truly puzzling, if unlikely mystery. It's fun to watch Poirot deal with a case of serial murder - in alphabetical order. He has his own grown-up Baker Street Irregulars to help, and as usual Hastings provides a useful clue without knowing it. This is a book you can enjoy even when you remember who did it.

I'd give it 3.5 stars. I'm realizing that I like the books WITHOUT Hastings a little better.

Despite the inclusion of Hastings I really liked this one
