توضیحات
The Leonides are one big happy family living in a sprawling, ramshackle mansion. That is until the head of the household, Aristide, is murdered with a fatal barbiturate injection.
Suspicion naturally falls on the old man’s young widow, fifty years his junior. But the murderer has reckoned without the tenacity of Charles Hayward, fiancé of the late millionaire’s granddaughter.

Agatha Christie sabe como fazer um mistério e prender sua atenção até o final, você pode até tentar acertar a identidade do assassino, mas ela sempre vai surpreender com o final do livro.
La autora sabe cómo jugar con la opinión de quién es el culpable, juega con los puntos de vista y con las propias preconcepciones del lector. Creo que nunca había leído nada de la autora y esta probadita me hace querer más.
I enjoyed this book quite a lot, especially the atmosphere and the slow unraveling of secrets. The "love story" developed so nicely and the ending felt real. However, the resolution didn’t fully resonate with me. While it does make sense and opens an interesting debate about whether evil is born or made—and what “evil” truly is—it still left me feeling somewhat unsatisfied. A solid read, but not one of my favorites.
