The plot of this book was slightly different from the other two Christie books I had read since it wasn't a situation where a group of people were together and someone was killed so you knew the suspect pool. In this case, Poirot was sent letters by the murderer in advance telling him what town someone would be killed and the date. After the second letter and murder, the only pattern seemed to be alphabetical in terms of town names and the names of the people dying. They had no other connections. Poirot was stumped and his suspect pool could be anyone. Even though I hadn't read too many Poirot books leading up to this one, I did like the change of pace in the storytelling. Once again, the chapters are short and move the plot along. There is a twist at the end, just when you think everything is solved, it isn't over yet. I did like the twist and did not expect it even though there were clues throughout. That is the kind of mystery I like when I don't see the end coming, but it does make sense when you look back at what you have read.
