I read all the Hercule Poirot novels years ago, there must be over 50 of them.
Well, to my delight and surprise, as I was looking to buy books to sell at my flea market while I was at the library bookstore, I found this novel
in the 5 for $1 hard cover blow out, in new condition!!
Agatha Christie had written a few plays in her carreer and this one was adapted by Charles Osborne, a Christie afficianado who has also written her biography.
This was a delight to read, bringing back wonderful memories of my childhood, since I started to read the Poirot novels at 12 years old in 1968.
I recommend it highly to any Christie fans.

Yeah, I also used to really enjoy a good Agatha Cristie mystery. But they do get a little old after a while.

My favorite is definitely And Then There Were None.

Some people don't  like familiar things.
I happen to be one of the people who love when things are basically the same.
I love authors who have certain character's and use them in book after book in similar ways.
