One, Two, Buckle my shoe

BY AGATHA CHRISTIE

 

Too chaotic even for the fans of Hercule Poirot.












 

Even the world's bravest hearts stumble at the sound of one name, Dentists! Not even our magnificent Poirot. When the dentist of Poirot found dead with a pistol by his side, Poirot can't help wonder about a chance of murder. When one of his patients die of an overdose on the same day and another goes missing, it seems a clear case of murder and suicide. But Hercule Poirot has other ideas and he can't stop until he finds them, can he?


Unless this is your first Agatha Christie novel, you won't find it as brilliant as it sounds. Rather you'll find the characters pale, and the plot so confused you won't be able to remember who's who and what is going on. The investigation part of it was too slow and you start to wonder, "Has Poirot become rusty?" But the ending makes up for it. Despite the above facts, this book is a mix of complication and exquisite denouement. This book definitely falls under the like-hate category.
