    The book was good It had a lot of details and allowed the reader to imagine being in those days. It was descriptive and exciting at times. It had mystery and suspense and it took you to the place as you read. Well written.

  • Not one of her best

    Early Agatha I think I found this weak plotted. Almost didn’t finish it 3-4 times. Her later been books are much better written/developed than this one. I’d pick another Agatha

  • Highly recommend

    This was an enjoyable read with a great twist in the end. My criticism on this edition of the book is that important plot points are WRITTEN IN ALL CAPS, which can be very distracting and corny.

  • Witty dialogue with great suspense

    She never disappoints. Whenever I want a good mystery novel, I can always open an Agatha Christie’s.

    as should be expected from an agatha christie novel, the mystery is engaging. my main source of enjoyment from this book came from the characters, however. tommy and tuppence (in this book anyway) are a couple of young, vibrant twenty-something pals in need of money who re-meet each other in the middle of a crowded public area (i can't remember if it was the street or a subway stairway). they stumble into the mystery-solving business accidentally while looking for easy ways to make cash, and i have to say they are charming, hilarious, and adorable. they're very keen on the idea of being "real" detectives, most of their romantic notions about it coming from films and popular novels. they tease each other a lot and call each other "old thing" or "old bean" interchangeably despite being very young in this book. they are without a doubt one of my favorite literary pairings!

    This book is dated and done well. I felt all the expressions made the book seem to be written in the time that it was set. Very well done.
