Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Such a twist at the end.
Review: Kept us guessing all the way through - but the little grey cells did it again.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: TERRIFYING and BRILLIANT
Review: I read this novel years ago, but still it just terrifies me! The ending was so genius, so revolutionary, and so brilliant that it ranks with the best mystery novels of all time! If only Christie were alive today, I would thank her for penning one of the most brilliant, shocking, and terrifying endings that I have read in any mystery novel!! Even if you are not a mystery fan, you MUST READ THIS. Beware of the ending!!

Rating: 5 stars

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Amazing! Read it!!!
Review: This is truely one of the best Agatha Christie books ever! an INCERDIBLE ending! Read it!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good solid Christie
Review: This struck me as almost a Christie pastiche; the number of (perfectly-timed) secret liaisons in the gazebo, secret engagements, secret marriages, poisoners, blackmailers, murders, suicide, unacknowledged children, torn scraps of cloth and so on per captia seems high even for Dame Agatha. Still, a fun read.

Maybe because I'd heard about how shocking and controversial the ending is, I twigged who the murderer was by about chapter four. Still, it was fun to watch the buildup and conclusion, and we get a fresh (although quite Hastings-like) view of Poirot. Three stars, but then I'm a hard grader! *8)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: AWESOME, SHOCKING< DARING!!!!!!!!!!
Review: buy this book. the ending in this very english book is the most amazing, daring, intelligent, and quite close to pushing all boundaries of mystery. but these books as well----and then there were none, abc murders, the man in the brown suit. trust me.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A good story; disapointing ending
Review: This book has a great story line, but the ending is too predictable for me. It was a great disapointment from all the hype.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: UNDOUBTEDLY THE BEST....!!!
Review: This is THE best Agatha Christie I have read. Even the best of critics MUST agree. The plot is great and the murder perfect. Christie truly at her best and so is Poirot.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderful!
Review: This is the best of all the Christie books that I've read. If you haven't read her books, save this one for last. The ending is fantastic. Don't peek.

Rating: 5 stars
