![]() Christie’s main female characters always draw me into the story, more so than any of her main male characters, and Jane was an exciting, enigmatic woman.Īs always, there was some period-typical racism in the novel. She felt like a real woman, multifaceted and mysterious. Jane was a very interesting character and I love how she was characterised. I wasn’t disappointed by the outcome at all. I thought it was a clever plot and although I did think that the ending was rather predictable, that didn’t stop me enjoying the rest of the plot. Poirot attempts to unravel the mystery while the murders continue. Her husband’s butler and secretary place her at the scene of his murder but she was also seen at a dinner party at the same time. It was such a fun mystery as the prime suspect, Jane Wilkinson, appears to have been in two places at once. Lord Edgware Dies was another odd but enjoyable Poirot novel. After all, how could Jane have stabbed Lord Edgware to death in his library at exactly the same time she was seen dining with friends? And what could be her motive now that the aristocrat had finally granted her a divorce? ![]() And yet the great Belgian detective couldn’t help feeling that he was being taken for a ride. Summary: Poirot had been present when Jane bragged of her plan to ‘get rid of’ her estranged husband. ![]()
