Hickory Dickory Dock, the clock struck one, the mouse ran down… Who hasn’t heard this rhyme? Agatha Christie was a fan of them, even though the rhyme has little connection to the story on this particular occasion. This week I am taking a look at this novel written by Christie in 1955, it is the 30th of 39 Hercule Poirot novels and includes murder, drug smuggling and an unusual case of kleptomania. But can the Belgian detective solve the crime before it’s too late? You won’t get any spoilers from me, but it’s an intriguing book nonetheless.
