Review: The Mystery of Three Quarters: The New Hercule Poirot Mystery
The Mystery of Three Quarters: The New Hercule Poirot Mystery by Sophie Hannah
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
What is it about?
The Mystery of the Three Quarters is the third novel in Sophie Hannah's, Hercule Poirot series which is set in 1929.
Poirot is accused by woman he has never met before of sending her a letter which accuses her of murdering a man named Barnabas Pandy. She won't listen him or his denial and storms off. On returning home he finds he has a visitor, a man who has received a similar letter. Poirot needs to clear his name and find the real murderer of Mr Pandy.
I enjoyed The Mystery of the Three Quarters as an intriguing mystery. Having read many of the Poirot novels, this is my first of the re-visited series and I was interested to see how it compared.
Ms Hannah has managed to capture the atmosphere of Agatha Christie's series with twists, turns and red herrings as there were in the original series.
Would I recommend it?
Yes, while it does not have the same depth as Agatha Christie’s Poirot, it’s a good entertaining read.
I would like to thank the Author/the Publishers/NetGalley for the opportunity to read this book in exchange for a fair and honest review
