Literary Review

What more need one ask of a detective story?

Ingram

Hercule Poirot's insistence that the police have arrested the wrong man in their investigation into a golf-course killing is proven correct when a second murder takes place. Reissue.

4.0�toiles sur 5 a confusing christie, Jui 30 2004

Par	Ash B. (New Orleans, LA) - Voir tous mes commentaires

I found this book to be just as delightful as most of christie's mysteries. Poirot is at his best, Hastings muddles along complicating things and there's plenty of bright young people in love to make this a cozy mystery. The end however is a bit confusing. Without spoiling it for other readers, I found the plausible motives and cast of villians to be a little disconcerting, especially given Poirot's propensity to blame each innocent attendant before finally throwing the curtain back and revealing the true murderer.

5.0�toiles sur 5 Poirot Wins the 1923 French Open, Jui 27 2004

Par	john purcell "johneric99" (Purcellville, VA USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires

Another Hercule Poirot thriller with more plot twists, unusual characters, unexpected relatonships and motives than a typical Christie who-done-it. Take this one to the beach this summer and bring a scorecard to keep track of all the players. Of course, there are twins who suffer from mistaken identities, and a chance meeting of adversaries from a long ago time in a remote location.

Murder on the Links actually features two murders and two detectives. Poirot is summoned to France by a wealthy businessman apparently in need of security, who turns up dead only hours before Poirot's arrival. Then another body turns up near the same golf course, but perhaps the death is due to natural causes. Then a younger detective appears, convinced that Poirot is a dottering old fool, with obsolete methods lacking the modern scientific approach.

Of course, Captain Hastings (from the Affair at Styles) is back as the narrator. Unfortunately here, Hastings becomes captivated by a young nameless woman and blunders in ways injurious to the solving of the crime. Ultimately, Poirot resolves the thing and shows up the young pretender.

4.0�toiles sur 5 A mystery that will keep you hungry for more, Mai 9 2004

Par	Mark (Chicago, IL) - Voir tous mes commentaires

Murder on the Links is a great book that has the best beginning of any book that I have ever read. It starts off by a detective named Hasting visiting his friend Hercule Poirot. On his way to visit him, he meets a girl that he finds just astonishing. He does nothing about seeing this amazing girl because he believes he will never meet her again. Poirot receives a letter telling him to venture off to a French town because the man who wrote the letter fears his life is in danger. They quickly head to the town, and later find out that the man had been murdered the night before. Poirot doesn't go along with the beliefs that the police hold. He needs to get to the bottom of the case before another murder. I felt that this book was very good in the beginning but began to fall apart halfway through the book. I do not have much experience in the mystery genre, so I do not know what to expect. Being a teenager, I felt that the book was at a more advanced level for me, and I wish I had a dictionary always on hand to look up words in the novel. On the other hand, the character development was amazing. For example, if Christie didn't include the names following the dialogue, I would be able to tell who said it because I already knew so much about the character. In addition, this book had great clues as to who the murderer might be. But were unfortunately usually too hard for me; which might be a good or bad thing. Overall Murder on the Links was a great book that kept you hanging and wanting to read more. Murder on the Links will keep me reading more mysteries!
