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.
This is quite a lot different to other Poirot novels, but maybe thats what I needed, to re-invigorate my Poirot challenge. This book focusses on a many years-old murder that Poirot is asked to investigate. The story is good, well crafted, the characters, well despicable in some cases but believable, Poirot’s little grey cells on top form, and the intrigue at maximum. This is one well written crime/mystery drama novel.
Sometimes all you need to get your reading mojo back is a good novel that sucks you in, and to me this was one of those.
As I head into the final third of this Poirot challenge this was as good as some of the early novels and was very welcome, thanks Agatha.

I had the same reaction as you--I didn't remember it either. Off to remedy that!
