Reviews

[Kathryn Jacobson · Rating 5 out of 5]

Pretty good. I think each one of these stories is flushed out into a full novel later. The Triangle at Rhodes is very similar to Evil Under the Sun, for example. Still quite fun. No marriage proposals in the whole thing.

[Robin · Rating 3 out of 5]

Three stories featuring Poirot. Not the best Christie, but even at her worst, she's entertaining.
