Look, I'm biased, okay? Agatha Christie is called the Queen of Crime for a reason, and she's never better than when she's taking nursery rhymes and making convoluted murderous plots out of them. Would the murderer probably have got away with it if they just quietly stabbed their victim in a back alley? Almost certainly! Do I care? NOT AT ALL. This book is glorious.
