The Big Four

It had been a while, so I decided to give Agatha Christie another run. I picked up a couple of books from the library, including The Big Four. Which, after reading, I've come to the conclusion I read before... probably during the high school years, when I first fell in love with her Hercule Poirot novels to the point of reading a ton of them. Oh well, good book (aren't they all?) so no real worries.

Hercule Poirot & Captain Hastings are visited by a seeming lunatic who mentions things about "the Big Four" before dying. And that plunges Poirot & Hastings into a crazy case as they try to find out what exactly is going on while constantly being on the run trying to figure out who can be trusted and who can't.

Not the best Agatha Christie book out there (still haven't found one that can beat The Murder of Roger Ackroyd), but still solid and a nice quick read.
