Book: The Monogram Murders

From her own admission Sophie Hannah would say she has not tried to mimic or replicate Agatha Christie’s style in this new Hercule Poirot offering. Even if she had, I would not be the person to tell you how it compares.
This book is my first step into Agatha Christie’s tales and because of this I have judged it entirely on its own merit. Through the narration of Mr Catchpool, Poirot is described as an articulate and precise man who rises to the challenge of intrigue and forgets not even the smallest of details.
