The ABC Murders: Hercule Poirot Investigates by Agatha Christie Abc Is Not As Easy As 1-2-3 Do-Re-Mi Theres a serial killer on the loose, bent on working his way though the alphabet. There seems little chance of the murderer being caught -- until her makes the crucial and vain mistake of challenging Hercule Poirot to frustrate his plans ... Personal Review: The ABC Murders: Hercule Poirot Investigates by Agatha Christie I needed an entertaining and quick mental chal enge. The 12th Hercule Poirot mystery does not disappoint. There's no good reason to give you the gist of the plot. Why spoil your fun? All of Ms. Christie's books are crisply written whodunits. No humor or colorful characters (outside of M. Poirot, of course) grace these pages. But the late author sure knew how to build a good puzzler. Most of the book is narrated by Captain Hastings, Poirot's good friend and confidant. Hastings is much like Sherlock Holmes' trusted sidekick, Dr. Watson. There are not a legion of suspects to sidetrack the reader. Ms. Christie was so good at her craft, she only had to wave a handful of possible candidates in front of the reader's face to keep you guessing. Yet, despite such an advantage, chances are that you'll still be stumped. I was. Written in 1935 and "The ABC Murders" is still a fun read.
