Description
Slučaj je privukao pažnju ovog belgijskog detektiva, baš kao i sumnjive okolnosti koje prete da zapečate sudbinu gospođice Karlajl. Sve je počelo anonimnim pismom, da bi se zahuktalo smrću njene tetke, pozamašnim nasledstvom, a završilo se otrovom. Istražujući slučaj, Poaro će dospeti u senku smrtonosne porodične tajne i misterije koja bi optuženici mogla da spasi život ili ga okonča.
„Elegična, emotivnija Kristijeva od one na koju smo navikli, ali genijalnost i izvanredna logika stavlja ovaj roman u red najboljih klasika svetske književnosti. Njeno poznavanje otrova dolazi do izražaja...”

What a lovely experience. I have to admit this time I did know who did it by the middle of the book. I still didn't guess why (had my ideas but they were wrong). I enjoyed how this book was divided in three parts: one for what happened before Hercule Poirot, one for what happened once Poirot appeared, and one after Poirot shared the truth with everyone. I admire how Poirot's goal is always to find the truth; it doesn't matter who is affected as long as the truth comes out, and he has showed us many times that telling the truth is better than telling a white lie for "the sake of the death". I was expecting to see more Jealousy since that's the topic of the book for my #readchristie2023, but I do get why @officialagathachristie chose it: Jealousy is the reason why an innocent person is getting judged and accused of murder. This was intriguing and one of those books I didn't want to put down (sadly enough I have adult responsibilities so I barely have 1 or 2 hours a day to read, and some days I don't feel like reading and I don't want to turn my hobby into a job). Agatha Christie surprises me again with how everything was planned, and I have to admit I wholeheartedly adored this book.
