Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

The world’s greatest detective, Hercule Poirot – legendary star of Agatha Christie’s Murder on the Orient Express, Death on the Nile and A Haunting in Venice – puts his little grey cells to work solving a baffling Christmas mystery. CAN HERCULE POIROT SOLVE A BAFFLING MURDER MYSTERY IN TIME FOR CHRISTMAS? It’s 19 December 1931. Hercule Poirot and Inspector Edward Catchpool are called to investigate the murder of a man in the apparent safe haven of a Norfolk hospital ward. Catchpool’s mother, the irrepressible Cynthia, insists that Poirot stays in a crumbling mansion by the coast, so that they can all be together for the festive period while Poirot solves the case. Cynthia’s friend Arnold is soon to be admitted to that same hospital and his wife is convinced he will be the killer’s next victim, though she refuses to explain why. Poirot has less than a week to solve the crime and prevent more murders, if he is to escape from this nightmare scenario and get home in time for Christmas. Meanwhile, someone else – someone utterly ruthless – also has ideas about what ought to happen to Hercule Poirot . . .

    First off : thank you NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to receive this ARC ebook.

    This is the first book of this series that I was able to read as I did not have any prior knowledge or experience of this author.

    This was a nice intriguing mystery book. From the beginning I was already guessing and trying to see who it could have been. I had quite a lot of fun of trying to guess who it was and creating theories in my head. I totally felt super involved in the novel which I always really like. Overall I may actually check out the other books once I have time.

    Great rendition!
