Even though I already knew the story, this was so much fun to read. The thing about Christie is she doesn't just plot whodunnits well, she is a wonderful writer all around. Everyone is a fleshed out human, there's good interplay (as always) between Poirot and his sidekick, and in the end this is a profoundly human story, not just a puzzle box.
