You will recheck the name of the author on this one; it begins nothing like an Auntie novel. Not that it isnt a mystery; it just doesnt seem to be in her style. So she fools us again and again, at least until the appearance of Poirot. But then its one red herring after another. Are there a murder and a jewel thief, or is it the same person? Who can they (it) be? Auntie outdoes herself in this one, keeping the hints to herself until the end. Maybe she didnt know herself.
