"Sigh. Not only is she a brilliant Queen of crime fiction in so far as the novel is concerned. But I do believe her short stories may be her best works especially the Hound of Death and Mysterious Mr. Quin. These tales are haunting, intriguing, beautiful and ambiguous. Her approach has appeared more modern here than in any other of her collection of short stories. An urgent recommendation for all crime/murder/suspense fiction readers."

    " A collection of short stories by Agatha Christie. This books is so creepy... and almost Victorian in its approach to the supernatural! I can't decide if I love it or hate it. Definitely a different feel from many of her longer novels. "

    " This book is composed by a series of short-stories that revolve around paranormal cases. Not being a usual theme on this author writings, it surprised as it resembled a fresh air breeze. Every short-story is interesting and sometimes it gives you the creeps. "

    " Novel yang penuh kontradiksi antara segala sesuatu yang dapat dibuktikan; ilmu pengetahuan, dengan unsur supranatural. Berisi duabelas cerita bertema gothic yang selalu diakhiri dengan ending mengejutkan. Mendebarkan, dan seperti biasanya, really worth reading for mystery lovers. "

    " This just about killed me. I'm not actually sure why I kept reading. At some point, all of the stories blended together. Then again, I'm neither a mystery nor a short story fan. Throw in a healthy scoop of occult and it's just not my style. "

    " The only detective novel of Christie that shows some parapsychological phenomenon. Indeed, in real life, police detectives sometimes have to deal with supernatural phenomenon. And this novel surely wanted to show that. Overall, this book is good, but not great. "

    " Non-material world does exist. Maybe some people hardly believe to occultism. But believe me, there's a Mysterious Power outside there that control all of this. If not, then does Life exist 'just' because of coincidence? I bet not. "
