Not terrible, but not my favorite Poirot, at all.

I have a loving fondness for Agatha Christie's Poirot series and the tv series starring David Suchet.

Always great fun to figure out whodunit... an added bonus is that listening melts the miles away on a road trip.

The problem with me is that I’ve been voraciously consuming all the Hercule Poirot series I can get my hands on. So I have quite come to terms that, at this point, it’s only natural for the stories to become formulaic. The murders have become easier to the reader, and I absolutely enjoy it for that. Miss Christie rarely betrays her readers in that aspect.
But this installment is one that I particularly enjoyed. Maybe the dog’s voice contributed to that but, really, I think this was a difficult case to solve. Miss Christie really had so many tricks up her sleeves we love her for that.
