Oh well that's it. He has gone now. Maybe in years to come I will be able to bring him back into my life. I have had this book for years but never read it, as I just didn't want to register the death of Poirot.
Christie has done this so well, and as usual, she didn't give anything away until the very end.

This is a touching end to the Poirot and Hasting saga, ending, as it started, at Styles. Hasting shines in this one, not in intelligence but in character: grieving widower, loving father, good friend.
