Every year around Christmas, I settle in with an Agatha Christie novel. She’s at the top of her game in this Hercule Poirot novel. The story caught my attention quickly and held it until the very end. I could barely flip the pages fast enough to see what was coming next.
This time, Poirot is on the case when a woman on his flight is found dead in her seat. It’s quickly concluded she was murdered. And while the cause of death seemed sensational– a poison dart from a blowgun–Poirot isn’t one to accept what is clearly in front of him. He questions everything, even when things seem straightforward to everyone else.
I can strongly recommend this book, and it was one of my favorite Agatha Christie novels to date.
Death in the Clouds is a strong and fast-paced installment in the Hercule Poirot series.
