Disclaimer: this is my first Agatha Christie novel ever

Simply: a very solid, compelling mystery! I only put it down due to exhaustion, then finished it the next day. It was immensely satisfying to deduce for myself who I thought the culprit was. Christie gives you all the information--you can solve the mystery after being introduced to the characters properly, if you want.

It should be acknowledged: this book was originally published under an extremely racist title.
