Mrs. McGinty's Dead

I enjoyed this Hercules Poirot murder mystery - mainly because Poirot's personality shines in this classic style Christie. He finds himself in a small community staying at a chaotically-run and dirty guest house. Ariadne Oliver arrives on the scene and announces herself by throwing an apple core out of a car window and hitting Poirot squarely in the middle of the forehead. Poirot is there bc a man is on death row for killing his landlady and local char women.  All of the suspects are residents of the community who may match descriptions and ages of women and their children who were involved in famous murder cases from many years ago and were featured recently in a tabloid newspaper story.  There is a lot of humor mixed in with serious investigation. Can Poirot uncover the murderer in time?
