3.0
i went into this assuming the "dumb witness" was the dog, and i was disappointed to find that he played no role in detecting the murderer. he did appear a lot, though.
pretty standard hastings-era poirot. hugh fraser reads the audiobook, which i enjoyed as a fan of the pbs series.
entirely unnecessary use of n-word.

Moderate: Murder, Racial slurs, Death, and Xenophobia
Minor: Chronic illness, Classism, Cursing, Violence, Bullying, and Xenophobia
The n-word is used two or three times in one chapter (the title of which includes the slur). it is not used anywhere else. it is not directed at any particular person.
