Seeing Poirot dance is an experience in itself, but here, it's accompanied by an interesting, fairly gritty story of a murder. The death in the Spanish chest definitely ranks among the more gruesome ones in the series, and it's depicted surprisingly vividly, although the main emphasis is still on the viewer's imagination. The plot is pleasantly tangled.
