Every. Time. She gets me so good.

Didn’t see that one coming, which shouldn’t surprise me at this point. I did latch on to a few of the clues that ended up painting the fuller picture. I wasn’t very invested in this story, Hastings was back and he isn’t my fave. I finally got sucked in around the halfway point, and the ending turned out to be a wild ride.

Reading these in order and so closely in succession has been a delight. Poirot’s degrading humor toward Hastings is my favorite (sorry not sorry), and when they reference past crimes I know which ones they are talking about. It all adds another layer to everything.

I listened to the audio narrated by Hugh Fraser and he does a great job.
