Recenzii
“Sophie Hannah does an egoless, silky job of reviving Agatha Christie’s beloved Belgian detective Hercule Poirot...enough so to hope that Hannah turns to Miss Marple next.” — USA Today
“Christie herself, some might say, could do no better.... Enough twists, turns, revelations and suspects to cook up a most satisfying red-herring stew. Literary magic.” — Washington Post
“Does Sophie Hannah’s Poirot live up to our expectations? Yes, he does, and markedly so.... As tricky as anything written by Agatha Christie. The Monogram Murders has a life and freshness of its own. Poirot is still Poirot. Poirot is back.” — Alexander McCall Smith, New York Times bestselling author of The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency
“Perfect...a pure treat.” — Tana French, New York Times-bestselling author of The Secret Place

“Sophie Hannah is a prodigious talent. I can’t wait to see what she does next.” — Laura Lippman
“Sophie Hannah’s idea for a plot line was so compelling and her passion for my grandmother’s work so strong, that we felt that the time was right for a new Christie to be written.” — Mathew Prichard, grandson of Agatha Christie
“Sharply written and rigorously plotted, this Poirot mystery rivals many of Christie’s own.” — NPR
