"I've been a fan of Christie's suspense since I was a teen but I'm not sorry to point out that the characters in Christie's books are racist and are not called out for it. <br/>I would have been into the story had it not spoiled my mood already by Raymond West's obvious racism. <br/>It is probably because of this that the 'big reveal' didn't surprise me at all or maybe, it really wasn't that big of a surprise. Anyway, not recommended for stated reasons."
