Tja, was soll ich sagen zu diesem Buch. Fangen wir am Besten mit dem Erzähler an. Julian Rhind-Tutt macht seine Sache, wie auch schon bei allen vorangegangenen Hercule Poirot Büchern von Sophie Hannah, sehr gut. Vor allen Dingen gefällt mir, dass er die Frauenstimmen nicht so entsetzlich hoch spricht, wie das manche männliche Sprecher tun. Zu den Charakteren, bis auf Poirot und Catchpool waren mir FAST ALLE unsympathisch. Was von der Autorin meiner Meinung nach auch gewollt ist. Die Geschichte ist durchaus spannend und man kann ihr gut folgen. Aber, und jetzt kommt das große aber, das Buch hat dasselbe Problem wie schon ein paar seiner Vorgänger. Die Auflösung ist ein bisschen arg unglaubwürdig. Deswegen 4 von 5 Sternen. Beim 10 Sternesystem 7 von 10.
