I don't feel quite safe reading the summaries in this book; they're a little bit spoilery. It's not as important as finding out who the murderer is, but I don't LIKE learning who is murdered before the murder takes place!
If you are a mystery buff, an Agatha Christie fan, an occasional Christie reader, a friend of any of the above, this book is for you, and for all your fortunate friends.
