I've never really read any Agatha Christie, though I always wanted to and I have to say that this was a nice little read to use as a way to test the waters. It's impressive how such a fascinating, twisty mystery with interesting characters can be told in such a short time. I guess my favorite thing was how intrigued I was by the background established about this location especially as it was brought into the current tale. I've always been impressed by the skill it takes to tell such a captivating story in a short time. I really enjoyed the narration as well. I'm definitely going to have to try out more by the author later.
