A great story with Poirot involved from start to finish (which is a big plus point), brilliantly written with many a red-herring chucked into the mix and with an exquisite twist and denouement.

Great story. Poirot goes to the dentist. Afterward the Dentist apparently shoots himself. Mr Blunt a financier who is powerful in the UK government also visited the dentist as well as Frank Carter the receptionists fiancée a piece of work. Then the bodies keep turning up including a Greek patient apparently given a fatal dose of anesthetic by Morley.
Lots of red herrings and twists. A good read with a few bits of humour throughout.
