Rezensionen
'Keeps us guessing - and guessing wrongly - to the very last page.' Liverpool Post

'Experienced as I am, the solution took me completely by surprise.' Frances Iles, Sunday Times

Needless to say that this past-master of detection handles it in a fresh and original way. The little Belgian's solution is both surprising and - after his briliiant exposition at the end - satisfying.' Daily Telegraph

'A beautiful precision-tooled job. False clues are laid with effortless skill up to the final revelation. Poirot distinguishes the book by his presence.' Julian Symons, Manchester Evening News

'Never has Mrs Christie exerted her incomparable power of deception with more subtlety or to better effect. Superb book.' Ralph Partridge, New Statesman

'Poirot at his best. Need I say more?' Nancy Spain, Daily Express
