Seeing Poirot dance is an experience in itself, but here is also an interesting, rather gritty story about a murder. Death in a Spanish Chest is definitely one of the more gruesome ones that occur in the series, moreover, it is surprisingly depicted in a very graphic way, although the main emphasis is still placed on the viewer's imagination. The plot is pleasantly intricate.
