To celebrate completing my 1000th book of the decade, I chose Agatha Christies first Hercule Poirot mystery novel for this reading slot. I am especially proud of this milestone because earlier in the decade when I was working full-time there was one month (September 2014) where I only read one book and two months where I only read two books (May and June 2012)!Agatha Christie wrote this novel in 1916, and it was first published in the United States by John Lane for $2.00 per copy in OctoberThis is how it all began! One of my favourite HP and Captain H novels.
