Why read it?

1 author picked After the Funeral as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Agatha Christie has got to be considered as one of the master craftsmen of the “whodunnit”. In this novel, she presents us with an intriguing mystery and brings in her famous character, Hercule Poirot to solve it.
