Agatha Christie Mrs McGinty's Dead
Chapter 1
Hercule Poirot came out of the Vielle Grand'mère restaurant into Soho. He turned up the
collar of his overcoat through prudence, rather than necessity, since the night was not cold.
"But at my age, one takes no risks," Poirot was wont to declare.
His eyes held a reflective sleepy pleasure. The escargots de la Vielle Grand'mère had been
delicious. A real find, this dingy little restaurant. Meditatively, like a well-fed dog, Hercule
Poirot cu...

What a book. Mindblowing and superlative. Christie excels herself. Poirot is sick, old and crippled.......still his little grey cells are as sharp as they are and in his last case, he excels himself!!

This book is one of its kind. Sure, you have culprit(s), and murder(s) as in the rest of Christie's but there the comparison ends. The culprit is a la Moriarty....matching wits with the great Belgian and winning the stakes too. The climax, when it comes, literally takes your breath away.

Just...

It is intelligent, and well written. A good finish to an amazing series of books by Agatha Christie. If you are a Hercule Poirot fan, then you will appreciate this valuable book.

If you have not read much of Agatha Cristie's books then I would not recommend this to you...But if have read a few and have some idea about his work then I simply say that this book is worth reading....this book reflects the class of Agatha Cristie and this closing book for Poirot's series really proves that she is the "queen of detective fiction"..

For a Christie/Poirot fan like me, a must read. Otherwise too, any reader will enjoy the all setting. After the initial (usual) plot setting, the book is a gripper. One cannot say Christie at her best but makes a good and entertaining treat. Get it and have a crack friends.

This is the last case in the Hercules Poirot series by Agatha Christie. No one could have imagined such a surprising end to such an amazing series. Reading this was totally worth it, especially because I am a thorough poirot fan.

If you are getting started on the Poirot series or haven't read agatha christie before, then I would not recommend this book, because it's the last one. I was very happy with the book.

I am keen reader of Agatha Christie,have more than forty movies and books I was really looking for this book as this is the last of Hercule Poirot,such an loving character.And I found it on Flipkart ordered it and on 2nd day I got my delivery of the book.

Book is really nice 'last of Hercule Poirot and Captain Hastings friendship.

It's better to read the book at last cause specials are kept for last and it is a mind blowing and a wonderful book . There's a very shocking end so go get the book...........

Written in the first-person narrative of Captain Hastings, this book is the best one by Dame Agatha Christie. I'm too baffled to tell you just how amazing this book is. Poor old Papa Poirot dies in this book, which is quite a shock. As always, the end intrigues one beyond measures. This book, however, is far more intriguing than the others ever written by the author. I don't want to spoil your reading experience by divulging anything... My verdict : Go for this. Thumbs up!

Excellent quality... Book is so perfect... The font and quality of the book gives you a retro feel... 1star missed just for packing...
