Finished this just now 
And 
Would like to say 
Don't miss this one out 
.
Amazing play at the end 
.
A lot of psychological factors involved in it
.
I wish to say more 
But All i will say is 
Poirot at his best and 
Other characters were given good ground and were well developed 
.
Amazing one really 
I must say 
The streak of Good Mystery/thriller books is strong this new year 😂 
.
.
And yes I almost missed what was right in front of me 
Only If I knew how to play Bridge 
Recently Learnes Blackjack 
Hopefully next time Bridge and then maybe a re-read 🙈
.
Studying human psyche was important part of this book

amazing narration
we get to know few things beforehand yet we want to know what happened in past
story is gripping 
it keeps you addicted 
it keeps you on toes 
makes you wanna finish it in 1-2 days 

story is also great 
different characters with good enough depth 

chose topic well and showed how different people deal with same things

It's good 
Enjoyed reading it 
Finished it in 2 days 
If you have read Feeny before then you might guess things 
But still you can't guess the twist in the end 
It's worth a read for sure 
.
Amazing premise
And the setting was so beautifully described 
.
I enjoyed it overall 
.
Thank you NetGalley for ARC
