I love this book, very nice and of course very well written. I've always loved Poirot much more than Miss Marple because he's sweeter, kinder, a nice person. She's a good person too, of course, but not remotely as sweet.
Here, Poirot is flying from France to England when a woman is found dead, murdered, on the plane. It was a funny moment when the jury's verdict was that Poirot wasw the murderer :lol: a bizarre foreigner, it's all they needed to suspect him :lol: British people have really no consideration at all for foreigners..
All the more reason for finding the murderer, if ever he needed one. The only possible suspects were on the plane, of course. Among them are Jane Grey and Norman Gale that after that episode start going out together. We follow Poirot's investigation, meet from time to time inspector Japp but not so much as to be annoying, since I don't particularly like him.
SPOILER for everyone who hasn't read it, but also for future me who will probably have forgotten it.
I had no clue, this time, although of course I never stop thinking about it because it takes away the pleasure of the reading and of the surprise, so I sort of like not having a clue sometimes.
It was norman gale, dressed as a flight assistant so nobody paid him any attention, nobody noticed it was him and not a real steward. That second coffee spoon really was interesting, wasn't it? This is what I love about Agatha: it's all there, you have all the clues that they have, it's fascinating.
