One of her more interesting books. I was getting tired of her usual methodology of the the big murder, side character murder and the killer almost murders again but gets caught so this book was a breath of fresh air. The twist was good as well.

this book uses racist language and depicts racist scenes. 

This is one of Christie's spy thrillers which are never my favourite but I definitely preferred this one to They Came To Baghdad, which I read a few months ago. I read it in two days but still wouldn't describe it as a particularly gripping. It discusses a vague new world order conspiracy like a few of her other thrillers and I didn't find that very intriguing. There are some good plot twists and interesting characters and her writing is as good as usual but it's not one I'll remember.
