Review hopefully later 😬🐷😬
So, although I am sure I have said this before, “I really don’t remember this story at all, either reading it or watching the Suchet TV version”. How I really don’t know, but there it is.

4.5.

This book is somewhat different in its structure when compared to the other Poirot books I have read. The murder in this story has happened long back and Poirot is asked to solve the mystery. He interviews all the people connected with the crime before finding the real perpetrator. Poirot fans will not be disappointed if they choose to read this.
