Remarking on Poirot, still a new character, one reviewer said he was "a pleasant contrast to most of his lurid competitors; and one even suspects a touch of satire in him."

Another great Poirot story

4 izar

Another great Poirot story. It was a bit disappointing that we were kept even more in the dark and some clues were just revealed after the fact—not the same way as in Styles. I was kept mostly in the dark, even though I realised some connections fast. The murderer though, I did not find on my own. Still, it was very enjoyable and I cannot wait to re-watch the tv show as well.
