No one, including Agatha Christie herself, liked “The BigFour.” The first novel after her 11-day disappearance and the trauma of hercollapsing marriage was assembled from her short stories to meet herpublisher’s deadline. Poirot takes on a worldwide conspiracy led by four sinistervillains, including a Chinaman! How did scriptwriters Ian Hallard and Mark(“Sherlock”) Gatiss handle this dog’s dinner of a book?
