I found my mind wandering a bit while reading this.

I guessed the twist about halfway through, but not the ending. I kinda wanted one more link and for one of the characters to be a bigger villain. 

Also, what happened to the dog?! 😭

It definitely felt like this second to last Poirot novel was not as tight and possibly the most rambling. Ariadne Oliver just doesn't cut it as a sidekick. Comparing this to the last Poirot where Hastings returns, that was a wonderful swan song for the Belgian detective.
