Another mediocre book. From the 3 books out of 5 that I read each of them was basically the same thing with a bit of different lore. But this time the ending was horrendous. Honestly, nothing makes sense anymore at the end. The murder WAS accidental yet somehow, probably because else the book wouldn't meet the recquired standard of an Agatha Christie book, there happens a last minute murder over something that was planned but never carried out. I really wanted to like these books from Sophie Hannah but the more books I am reading the worse it is getting. Just let Poirot die already (even though in the last OG book he DID kill himself). I am honestly going to read the last 2 books but then I will never be spending my money on these books again. Each time the plot is getting worse. it really reads itself like a cash grab and not really like a Poirot book. Poirot wouldn't have such a blown up ego but says he can solve it with no evidence that he found himself but people are giving him on a silver plate. I am really disappointed; money and time wasted.
