Jim's Review

🐛
Poirot on a train! Jim adores this one because the solution is so audacious that you either love it or throw the book across the room. Jim loves it. The claustrophobic setting is perfect, the parade of suspects is delicious, and Christie's plotting is more precise than a Swiss watch. Five worms — the little grey cells approve, and so does this little green worm.
