The A.B.C. Murders by Agatha Christie

Summary:

When Alice Asher is murdered in Andover, Hercule Poirot is already looking into the clues. Alphabetically speaking, it's one letter down, twenty-five to go.
There's a serial killer on the loose. His macabre calling card is to leave the ABC Railway Guide beside each victim's body. But if A is for Alice Asher, bludgeoned to death in Andover, and B is for Betty Bernard, strangled with her belt on the beach at Bexhill, who will then be Victim C? More importantly, why is this happening?
Often considered to be one of Agatha Christie's best.

My thoughts:
Not her best book but a good writer.

Think of every cliched ending you can think of in a murder book... now expect none of those to happen in any Agatha Christie book. This book however was hard for me to care about when reading it which I've never experienced with a book by Agatha Christie before. I will continue to read her books as I do enjoy them but this won't be one that I would recommend to read.
