Poirot Investigates

"Poirot Investigates" by Agatha Christie is the first published collection of Hercule Poirot short stories. I really like it because you begin to get a more nuanced understanding of Poirot's methods. You see how his quirks and predilections are essential to the solving of each case. Some in the collection are fiendishly clever and well done. I would have rated the collection higher but I felt that not every story was equally good. I especially liked: "The Mystery of the Hunter's Lodge," "The Jewel Robbery at the Grand Metropolitan," "The Disappearance of Mr. Davenheim," and "The Case of the Missing Will."

This compendium of short stories was worth reading. I'm not much of a short story person, ergo the 3 stars.

This is an amazing collection of stories which ranges from burglary to kidnapping to murder. I recommend it for all Agatha Christie lovers.

Poirot anthology. Review coming soon!

Some very nice short stories about Poirot's smaller cases. even though they were only some pages long they were very interesting and it was nice to get a little insight into Poirot and Hasting's life.
