Kittys Notes & Book Snippet

"This crime is so complicated that it must be quite simple," declares Poirot as the mystery unfolds and we know from experience that Agatha's Crime Mysteries are never simple!

The ingenious Hercule Poirot never fails to delight and despite changing tastes in modern reading sometimes the old favourite murder mysteries are always the best.

The now familiar characters created by Agatha are like old friends as we turn the pages of her wonderful books for a relaxing nostalgic read of the original cozy crime mysteries in these thrilling old Agatha Christie books.
