3.5 starsInteresting start of the story with a murder scene, a stranger walking in on the murder scene, a confession of the crime. It looks very simple open and shut case, and then the Web of confusion begins.Very different from the other agatha christie stories. This was the first one not having a Miss Marple or Poirot solving the crime. Somehow I was able to guess the plot at 70% of the story even with all the red herrings.I've almost given up on Agatha Christie so many times... but this book renewed my interest in her. This author's strong points are interesting characters, excellent dialogue, mystery and intrigue. Forensics, detective work and science are not her strong points. So when you get a book like this, that is written more from the laymen's perspectives and less from the detective's P.O.V. it's pretty good.There was one character in this book that I enjoyed. Unfortunately toward the latter part of the
Oh wow. What a great short read with twists and turns!

This was a play turned novel. It was an excellent murder mystery. It had me guessing the whole way, and kept my interest. I would recommend this to anyone who loves Christie's books or is new to her world. I would even reread it to see if I could pick up on clues as to who the murderer was.
Kat's review of Madame Bovary reminded me of this story. The wife is discovered standing over her husband's body and holding a smoking gun. Then she confesses to killing him. Well, given that it's an Agatha Christie, you'll have guessed it still isn't completely straightforward. To start with, it soon transpires that the bullet doesn't match the gun...
I missed Hercule but this was a bit fun. The most exciting part was finding out that this play opened at the Bristol Hippodrome for one week before moving to the West End.
Hmm.. not her best (for me, at least). I did not see it coming, yes, but the revelation kind of fell flat for me. I read "Murder on the Orient Express" first, and I found it so well-written and engaging that perhaps I expected highly of the rest of her works. The next on my to-read list is her "And Then There Were None," her bestselling novel. I hope the wheels turn in my favor.I recommend listening to the audiobook version narrated by Hugh Fraser. His delivery is phenomenal, and honestly what
