I think this has to be my favourite Poirot story.
A tyrannical head of a rich family is murdered. Poirot is called in to assist in the investigation. The usual shenanigans ensue.
Read by Hugh Fraser, who is absolutely *AMAZING* at voice acting. My gosh! You'd seriously think it was the actors from the series talking. He is absolutely on point, and it really brings the tale to life. 11/10 for the narration.
The story itself is fun. Simeon is, of course, nasty, and it's a delight when he's bumped off.
Good stuff. Good story. Good narration.
The tv show with David Suchet did a fantastic job of staying relatively close to the main beats of the story. I do so very much love Pilar. Sasha Behar really brings her to life and gives her a lush accent that is a delight to hear.
