One of Christie's most well-known Poirot mysteries, and deservedly so. It features a very clever solution and a surprisingly large number of clues make it a more than fair challenge for the reader. Unfortunately, it is such a clever solution that numerous television shows have used it since its publication, giving the reader a somewhat unfair advantage over Ms. Christie. Still, I didn't guess the first time through, and it was a fun ride even on re-reading. A deserved classic.
