Three young women share a London flat. The first is a coolly efficient personal secretary; the second an artist. The third interrupts Hercule Poirot's breakfast of 'Brioche' and 'Chocolat' insisting she is a murderer – and then promptly disappears. Slowly, Poirot learns of the rumours surrounding the mysterious third girl, her family – and her disappearance. Yet hard evidence is needed before the great detective can pronounce her guilty, innocent or insane…

Hercule Poirot among the hippies

3 stars

Now this one was a treat! One of Christie's finest and I didn't know this before I read it but it was published right before my very fave of hers, Endless Night. And almost thirty years after the one I most recently read, Murder is Easy, which was also great. What a career!

This one has a hippie chick with memory issues, bohemian artists, spies, jealousy, of course a big mansion but also London flats. Just great.
